The hate for Trump is, to put it simply, stupid. I'm not saying he's a saint, because he can say some stupid things, but holy hell, the media is all against Trump. It's sad, because they'll take literally anything he says and twist it. His quote about Saddam Hussein was meant to be interpreted as "he wasn't a good leader but he did a great job at keeping terrorists in their place". But classic media sources spun it around.

The media loves Trump, he has dominated the news for 2016 and didn't have to pay a cent to get all that coverage.

That feeling of relief when Trump gets stomped in the general...

 

That feeling if Trump somehow wins... like when you ask someone for some proof their god exists... and you get some bullshit.

$15/h Min wage CAN be a good thing. But you can't just bump up that wage by a large margin without experiencing fallback. You need to ease into it.

At the government level, I think the intent all along has been to ease into it. It's just that slogans, sound bytes, and headlines aren't very good conveyers of detail. My state's government recently passed an increase in the minimum wage to $15/hour, but it's going to be phased in over the course of several years. For my area, they don't even give a date, only that it will be later than 2020.

 

From the NYS website:

• For workers in New York City employed by large businesses (those with at least 11 employees), the minimum wage would rise to $11 at the end of 2016, then another $2 each year after, reaching $15 on 12/31/2018.
• For workers in New York City employed by small businesses (those with 10 employees or fewer), the minimum wage would rise to $10.50 by the end of 2016, then another $1.50 each year after, reaching $15 on 12/31/2019.
• For workers in Nassau, Suffolk and Westchester Counties, the minimum wage would increase to $10 at the end of 2016, then $1 each year after, reaching $15 on 12/31/2021.
• For workers in the rest of the state, the minimum wage would increase to $9.70 at the end of 2016, then another .70 each year after until reaching $12.50 on 12/31/2020 – after which will continue to increase to $15 on an indexed schedule to be set by the Director of the Division of Budget in consultation with the Department of Labor.

There may be a few fringe voices declaring it has to happen overnight, but I agree that that's irresponsible and unrealistic. I'm firmly on the side of increasing the minimum wage, but this is the way it actually happens in the real world.
