Boehner Has No Intention Of Allowing A Vote On The Minimum Wage.
You may have heard Republicans shrieking over the last few days that President Obama’s proposal to raising the minimum wage by a tiny bit would signal the end of the world— or at least an increase in unemployment. This has, more or less, been the party line of the Party of Greed and Selfishness since 1933 when the first U.S. minimum wage law passed and since 1938 after a right-wing Supreme Court tossed it out and it had to be repassed by Congress. Their concern trolling about unemployment has always been a lie and is always being proven to be a lie, not that that ever slows them down.
