How many state government were even paying the former minimum wage claiming being broke and can't afford to pay it. But they conveniently loot the state dry
Jokers !! What can 60k do for a family person
ReplyDeleteIf these state governments lack funds let them go seek ways to improve the economy of their states. Enough of mediocrity everywhere. Must ppl suffer because governors have a fish brain or their azzes are too old for the job they are called to do and they are taking afternoon naps instead of seeking out opportunities of prosperity that will help their state to grow. Should workers suffer because of their uselessness. When will the culture of mediocrity in governance ends? Mtsscchhwww
