for all the voters, no matter what party you are registered with, i'm sure thousands of you are working for minimum wage, and the new Republican Governor many of you voted for, just put a stop to you getting a raise in pay, he thinks minimum wage is enough. yep it sounds like you just kicked the chair out from under yourself...
Nope just left a little value to the dollar and stopped inflating it. To all the thousands working for minimum wage...work harder and move up the way I did. Live what's left of the American dream and stop depending on the government.

now the healthy young guys and gals, that don't work at all, and get a government check for doing nothing, now that is depending on the government. and should be stopped.

Thousands????
Not likely. More like Hundreds.

The wage increase affects 510 state employees and will cost taxpayers $1.6 million. A third of the affected employees work in state nursing homes for military veterans, according to Beshear.

Try again............

Geo[/QUOTE] I wasn't trying anything, I just read the artical to fast, seen where he was reversing some things Beshear had put in place, and I seen where he was stopping the minimum wage for state workers, just took it as state of Ky, not working for the state. looked it up and read it again slower, and it effected 800 state employees not 510, but the bottom line is, it will effect the whole state of Ky's minimum wage, if he won't let the state government employees be raised to 10.00 bucks an hour, no way will he let the entire state have a minimum wage hike. that they desperately need.
We that are on SS won't see a pay bump this year.I personally don't need one. As long as fuel prices stay under 2.00 a gallon. I won't need another car, food prices on my commodities are still reasonable. Since I didn't vote for either governor,I forfeted my right to bitch. It's time for "trickle down" to start working for the rest of the lower income folks. Or was that a fib, like the tooth fairy or easter bunny?

Merry Christmas to you my friend...

Funny thing is you never heard ole trickle down blame everything on Carter for 8 years,and I was dam proud to be an American. Now 7 years in and it's still Bushes fought and we're the laughing stock of the world. Truth is Obama wouldn't make a pimple on ole trickle downs back side.......Merry Christmas
We are rebuilding bridges and roads, and they are falling apart before we finish them. I'm not laughing! We pay an american major contractor a huge sum or a job. he contracts a local company, who pays the necessary bribes to a tribal chief,who doles out few favors to the family, and you get a guy with a pick up and a wheel barrow,and a ton of asphalt and dumps it into a pot hole, on a 101 degree day, and drives off. I'm waiting for the government to build a winter olympic venue there soon. Trying to bring a democracy to that area of the world is like feeding strawberries to a pig. There is a difference in culture, that will always remain no matter what we do. We lost our way picking up dominos, erasing the red peril, and bringing an arab spring to the world.But the most insane thing was borrowing money from china to give to thieves in the middle east. yeah people are laughing at us while they put what use to be our money into their swiss bank accounts. i'm not amused.

The only change I've seen is now there's no hope.
