but hey, a photo op is a photo op.

I remember hearing, "Well, maybe we can try for $12...maybe...Once I'm safely in the WH..."

Talk about pampered and entitled.

Somehow that's actually worse than taking a bad stand on it. I remember all of her surrogates screaming about how minimum wage shouldn't be a thing here, so I guess she hedged her bet in public while letting her minions try to sink it.

if THEY can get their hands on it.

Hillary, self serving soul that she is - who never even supported`the campaign, will now take credit.

Hurrah.

she had flashbacks of fighting for the minimum wage on the tarmac in Bosnia

She has a ton of class and sadly it is all low.

The High priests of Mammon can destroy us all if they do not get enough sacrifices...

from a DU post:

peons to be slaves, I'm ok with that."

They would have accused her of stabbing them in the back if she said $12 isn't enough on the national stage. Protecting and courting suprdelegates.

sponsors.

Had some group handing out fliers saying she was for it.

support for 15 $ IN NY..... because it is a fuck ton more expensive to live here? Were you all ignorant of that- or just pretending to be? LOL. So much integrity.

She said it..I heard her. Are you ignorant of the words that came out of her mouth in a debate on national television?

As in NYC. She supported the 15$ movement in NY. Sorry, this is bullshit.

CA do not need the same minimum wage. Some really expensive places to live like NY and NJ have the worst minimum wages and benefit programs. That is messed up.

Not just for NY or CA. THAT is what is messed up, because we both know she came out against a $15 national minimum wage. When it's put on a campaign poster like that, the line gets blurred. See what I mean?

I guess I have always been aware it is a minimum and states are fighting for other increases when they need to?
I assumed it was widely known it is both a federal and states issue.

They won't look at it and think, "Yes, but just for NY because it's widely known that it is both a federal and states issue." That is clearly what the poster is designed to do.

but they care, then they should do the bare amount of reading on the subject. She has discussed the 12$ figure extensively.

Thinking she, like Bernie, was for $15

fight for. Why is this distinction lost on so many people here? She has been very clear explaining that.

In Texas it is much more expensive to live a city like Austin or Dallas vs the outskirts of a town like Tyler.

There are parts of Texas where cost of living is higher than parts of NY.

We need a just national minimum wage.

I am not sure why suddenly people are claiming this is a bad thing? New talking point. LOL.

Should gay marriage be a local issue? How about abortion? Should the EPA or DoE be abolished, as some Republican candidate propose?

Sometimes local politicians fail their people.

If you are arguing that minimum wage should be a local issue, that would be better for the GD forum.

a thing- a thing that BOTH candidates think is good. Seriously people here are misrepresenting the issue, and try to twist it as if Bernie is against states and cities having their own minimum wage because Hillary accepts that? I doubt he ever said it, but here we are making shit up about BOTH candidates, to try and make Hillary look bad. No integrity to be found here.

But I guess she really does, and she was just lying again. During a debate, on national television. It is baffling to me that you can say it's bullshit when it came out of her mouth in a debate. And she did not qualify it like you are.

And when you continue to pretend this is a lie- it is you who totally lacks integrity.

and if you knew anything about this issue you pretend to care about, you'd know it was always a floor and some states would need to go higher. To say they are the same is baloney. Stop perpetuating lies.

support in the senate already. Which matters, because 15$ does not have wide support.
This is not some random salary negotiation- it;s something that has already been debated among the senate.
If it actually matters to you- then get your facts straight.

She.Does.Not.Support.Them, She pretended to in Vegas, and she is pretending to again. She is a liar.

It is not two different opinions or a flip flop- because it is two different things. Jeeze.

Clinton states "But I'm standing with the majority of Democrats in the Senate who have introduced a minimum wage increase to $12. "

No integrity at all. Nope.

is that laborers do not want a nationally fractured, balkanized minimum wage, with some areas giving and some areas taking away. $15 an hour, for labor, everywhere, with no excuses or backpedaling or asterisks. Work is work, and work deserves fair pay. There are not that many difference in cost of living, things like gas, education, medical care, child care, food and even rents, are going up everywhere. To say that it is less expensive to live in one place is a lie, used to dampen wage growth. As soon as someone starts muttering into their sleeve about the "cost of living" they are going to follow up with an excuse as to why they can't pay a fair wage for labor.

I'm guessing you don't live in NY, NJ or Cali, or have read many studies.

Anyway- this is off point, the OP is a deliberate attempt to confuse people that she was talking about a ceiling, not a floor. I guess those falling for it have never read much about the issue they claim to hold so dear.

anyone generally has. And taxes. Shit, when you factor those in.
I can't believe anyone would try to argue otherwise. No grasp of the facts, no integrity.

hypocritical LIAR!!!

Thankfully those poor, young people that she feels sorry for will see right through this pandering bullshit.

now act like they were for it the whole time, LOL.

They spin so fast it's hard to keep up with what they want to pretend to be each week.

Inquiring minds want to know.

Or . . . were you just . . .

This takes the cake!

as soon as she takes credit for something she did not have anything to do with the Hillary memes will follow!

I think I will ask my 14 year old how you do that kind of meme stuff. A few pop to mind already.
Hillary standing next to Neil Armstrong on the moon...
maybe standing next to Lincoln feeding him the words to the Gettysburg address...

Just listen to that Etch-a-Sketch a-rattle.
