I'm no economist but the fact that more than 42 million Americans (1 in 8!) are on SNAP (i.e., food stamps) says that the federal minimum wage is way too low.

How many provinces does Canada have? Why limit them to becoming just one U.S. state - if they ever want to join their southern neighbor? Imagine the "states' rights" debates to follow . . .
Oh, thinking of joining southern neighbors . . .

seattles new City Hall Park. yet another multi acre open space with no playground, no basketball hoop, no mini soccer pitch, no pickle ball court, no room for recreation. just an expensive windy sidewalk and a bunch of trees designed to discourage people actually gathering to do something here
