That's $33 million a DAY. And they want to repeal the minimum wage of $7 an hr.

Meanwhile, this household has not seen any raises in over 5 years, while our employer provided health care contributions, deductibles and co-pays continue to climb - substantially, with a corporation that is doing quite well. But I guess we should just fall to our knees and be thankful to be employed at all. Christ this is just disgusting that most of us have to eat this shit every day. May these pigs someday choke on their excessive, obscene wealth.
