And the GOP, through their 'healthcare' bills, are going to slash billions from Medicaid and give each of the wealthiest 1% in American another $197,000 in tax breaks.Wage Statistics for 2014
Most jobs pay under $20/hour
Most U.S. jobs pay under $20 an hour - CNNMoney
Most new jobs pay under $15 per hour as of 2015

So when someone says get a better paying job... the fact is there are not enough high paying jobs to go around.
If everyone in America had a PhD in physics half of them would be earning under $15 because there's an absolute shortage of good paying jobs.
No matter what anyone does, half of the country must earn under $15 - poverty level wages - because the jobs don't exist. And under Trump's health care plan Americans will lose half of that to insurance premiums. Which will leave most Americans squatting in the streets.
This is capitalism. Government interference didn't do this. Employers do not want to pay any wages at all, and they would have people work for free if they could get away with it. See our prison-industrial complex for an example.
That's not how it works, the burden is on the one making the claim to prove that claim. You're full of crap and you know it
Yep, you're full o ****e.Liberals are losers with their hands out wanting something for nothing because they are not responsible enough to provide for themselves. That is just how it is... If you don't like it, then go find a safe place to cry.
