Pay a livable wage and they won't leave you. It's not brutal it's math.

Where is all this extra money coming from that employers suddenly have?

Don't you have your own personal printing press like the federal government does?

A tight market is good for workers. Good pay for workers is good for America.

Vote for increased taxes and prosecutors could be paid on par w/ private attnys. Not rocket science.

So many jobs out there paying "livable wages" that can't hire people
