"Here, let me pour this in your ear. Don't mind the smell." . . . Come CAPTION Fox's Stuart Varney!



Stuart (Cash register for a heart) Varney is saying: "And it's only appropriate that I let my viewers know just exactly why I'm against a Minimum Wage in the first place. . . . 'Minimum" means like the least possible wage you could give them. . . . Like 0-cents-an-hour. . . . Or, if you look at it right, it's like they'd have to pay you to work for you, and as appealing as that may seem, we really should draw the line somewhere, . . . and besides, like I've said, I'm with the working man on this! . . . So we don't need no stinking minimum wage, to put it in the parlance of one of your compatriots."

When I started working, a long time ago, I think I made sth like $ .48 an hour, that is 48 cents.
Every time the min wage was raised, the repubs gave the same argument,"it will destroy small business & destroy jobs. "
If it had been up to the repugs , I would have retired making $ .48 an hour.
