Midknight Review -- new and revised: Socialist Democrat, Cortez, visits a restaurant in New York City that is closing because of minimum wage requirements.

"The restaurant I used to work at is closing its doors. I swung by today to say hi one last time and kid around with friends like old time. I'm a normal, working person who chose to run for office, because I believe we can have a better future. You can do it too. We all can."

While she celebrates her "common roots," the iconic cafe of her younger days, has been forced into closure because of ever increasing rent made unaffordable due to minimum wage requirements. The restaurant employed 150 people but could not afford the $32,000 minimum wage requirement, . . . .
. . . . per job opening. Understand that the owner employed "part time" help to avoid paying "benefits." But the job, filled by two employees during an eight hour shift, nevertheless required a $15.00 per hour wage. That is $32,000 per year for a single job opening.

You should know that there were close to 15 million folks working at minimum wage, in 1978. Today, the minimum wage has grown from $2.73 per hour to $15 while the minimum wage work force has shrunk from the 15 million figure to under 6 million.

While the ignorant dance in the streets for higher wages, they are not aware that they are shuttering their own job opportunities. Money does not grow on trees, a fact that Socialists really do not understand.

The Stated Nonsense from the Left now includes these Progressive goals:

July 2, 2008, Obama had this to say: "We cannot continue to rely only on our military in order to achieve the national security objectives that we've set. We've got to have a civilian national security force that's just as powerful, just as strong, just as well-funded."

MICHELLE OBAMA: "Barack knows that we are going to have to make sacrifices; we are going to have to change our conversation; we're going to have to change our traditions, our history; we're going to have to move into a different place as a nation."

“ . . . . . . they have become a generation of activists possessed with that most American of ideas – that people who love their country can change it.” -- Obama the Radical

On September 30, Van Jones told MSNBC "I think everybody should hold onto your seats. October is going to be the turning point when it comes to the progressive fight back."
