    feeling it way more than a pinch and what makes our economy envious

    incomes are simply not enough to keep up with the prices of everything that needs to be spent on monthly

    the minimum wage is still $7.50 and yes that is the amount some are paid in the US lucky to break $15 and all the low wage earners not being able to participate in the economy adds fuel this landfill fire

    worker’s rights and living wages are at a worst point than before biden got in office and this was his campaign promise last time raising the federal minimum wage

    biden is very out of touch with his comments lately

    not to mention it takes healthy people to have a healthy economy and we have no universal healthcare here which is yet again another failed campaign promise with the situation even worse off now then when he started as president

    and without national police reform the underpaid are even more put down thanks to biden’s track record of failed campaign promises and this situation is again worse than when biden started

    biden and trump both should have stepped aside and should not have even been eligible given their past and current work history
