No, they don't. And haven't for 35 years.

Given that this was written in 1729, I'm not personally acquainted with the author.

Perhaps if 40%+ of low-income schools got their fair share of state and local funds, these problems might not be so troublesome. Or not exist at all.

Since you quoted me, I assume your post is intended to have something to do with mine. But the "last time we raised the min wage" was five years ago. The divergence I spoke of was 35 years ago.

Data: a set of values of qualitative or quantitative variables; restated, pieces of data are individual pieces of information. No such stipulation is accepted. Sorry.

And you refuse to address the reasons why the govt let the water run into the ocean. And to suggest that this is the entire reason why CA has a water problem is idiotic. Has the word "drought" come up in your explorations?

Lol all you like, but so far your "well-reasoned arguments" are nothing more than the usual patrician rationalization. The "theories" worked just fine until the late 70s/early 80s when productivity and wage growth began to diverge. But you're probably too young to remember.

It is a melancholy object to those, who walk through this great town, or travel in the country, when they see the streets, the roads and cabbin-doors crowded with beggars of the female sex, followed by three, four, or six children, all in rags, and importuning every passenger for an alms. These...

Perhaps you mean the 28th. John Stossel. Fox Business News. Nonetheless, I suspect the residents of Toledo would disagree.

Actually the present arrangement is rather new, though there are those who'd like to see an eventual return to the 19th-century feudal system. A few decades ago, the average executive compensation was 20 times the wage of the average worker. Now it's over 300 times. It's nearly 800 times the...

Actually, there's a bit more to it than that. One's point-of-view may depend on whether his sympathies lie with those who make their living by farming or those who make their living by fishing. It's easy to find a variety of viewpoints by googling, as opposed to living on a steady diet of breitbart.

Economics, economists, textbooks, hypotheticals, the management view. In the end, though, the minimum-wage worker still can't support his family.

Taxes are what you pay for the privilege of living and working in whatever society you've chosen. As for your food stamp and Social Security proposals, why don't you work something up and get back to us? You could change the face of welfare governance.

Maybe it's the same reason rightwing pundits are obese. Rush Limbaugh looks sort of like a lesbian.

You might also point out that women "kill" untold numbers of potential human beings every time they menstruate. But nobody gets all worked up into a moral how-do-you-do about it. Eventually, we'll be killing billions of potential human beings every time we bathe.

It comes from taxes. How would you administer your program so that it costs as little as you think it would?

How much? And who would administer that? Who would police it? How? And this website would appear by magic, and no one would be required to administer the program represented by the website? That's pretty amazing stuff.

Breitbart and Fox, well my, my, my. Why don't we look at this from a different viewpoint? Drought-Stricken California Makes Historic Move To Regulate Underground Water For The First Time At least one in four Californians get their water from underground aquifers, and up until now, use of this...

What cut did you have in mind other than withholding and FICA?

Sorry. I thought you were showing some compassion for the minimum-wage worker. My mistake.
