Are you a hard working Family Guy/Gal? Prepare to be screwed

Cuz the folks who contribute campaign dollars to your reps want more for less.

What this means for you is that you will work harder and longer, for less wages and benefits, so your bosses can play and make larger contributions to their paid for politician of choice.

4. they've already completely gutted unions.
what else do they want? for us to work for 36 cents an hour and live downstream from untreated factories like their operations overseas?

the low pay system is a failure. the reason is because you NEED your workers to have discretionary income so that they can afford to BUY YOUR SHIT.

people can't now, and the economy is screwed because of it.
