I totally agree that we need change, but I'll bet Wayne and I differ on who we see succeeding. To my knowledge there does not exist a member of the #liberals who:

- will give the #LANDBACK
- will stand for #palestine
- will stand against #israel
- will stand against #privateHealthcare
- will stand against #OilAndGas
- will stand against #bigTech
- will stand against #bigPharma
- will stand against #banks
- will stand against #corporateExploitation
- will reform elections #PR
- will pursue 90% #wealthTax
- will bust #monopolies
- will aggressively #decarbonise
- will immediately implement #ubi #universalBasicIncome
- will tie #minWage to #costOfLivingIndex
- will immediately fund #greenEnergy
- will create #nationalHighSpeedRail
- will reform and fund #healthCare
- will include **all** #healthServices as #healthCare
- will strongly support #unions
- will fund #coops and #nonprofit #housing
- will repair, upgrade and build #schools #cleanAir
- will stand with the #UN even if it involves Can/USA
- will support #degrowth
- isn't a racist, homophobe, transphobe, xenophobe, misogynist or other biggot

Until such a candidate exists, the next one will just be another #capitalist stooge.

Pizza Hut is LYING: They're NOT Firing Their Drivers Because of a Minimum Wage Hike

#Republican federal “judge” blocks executive order to require federal contractors to pay a $15/hour #minimumwage.

President #Biden’s administration will appeal.

The radical reactionary Republican “judge” used an extremist legal theory in his ruling called #majorquestionsdoctrine which basically eliminates the ability of government to make any significant rules.

Biden's $15 minimum wage for federal contractors blocked by US judge

A federal judge in Texas has ruled that President Joe Biden lacked the power to order U.S. government contractors to pay workers a minimum wage of $15 an hour, and blocked the plan from being enforced in three states.

@3x10to8mps #JoeManchin is also one the the “democratic” senators that voted against raising the #USminimumWage . #wealthAndIncomeInequality in the US has now surpassed a 100 year high. I don’t trust people who pretend to care about our standard of living but don’t support basic things such as raising the #minWage . If the #minimumWage had kept up with productivity increases and inflation since 1968 it would be nearly $25/hr . #inequality #standardOfLiving #poverty

US minimum wage and its change in value over time. #minwage
How much the US minimum wage — and what it can get you — has changed since the year you were born

The federal minimum wage has risen over the years, but not nearly enough to keep up with inflation and the skyrocketing cost of living.

Proof Ontario's Minimum Wage Hike Did Not Kill Jobs

The numbers show what many experts have argued: Minimum wage hikes don't derail strong economies.
