Did Minimum Wage Workers Picket Fast Food Restaurants to Eliminate their Jobs?

That sounds crazy, but can you believe that that group of people can be so misinformed as to actually march to eliminate their jobs? Well, it happened. Just recently, protesters (or what might be called union rent-a-mob people), demonstrated in front of many McDonald's restaurants, around the country, trying to get the minimum wage raised to $15 per hour. Sounds good, right? Everyone wants to get more money for their labors, but are these people actually “cutting off their noses to spite their faces” as the old saying goes?

Maybe if Ted Kennedy had been an NFL player, the left would have paid more attention

By now, virtually everyone has seen the appalling video of Baltimore Ravens running back Ray Rice savagely attacking his then-fiancée in an Atlantic City elevator.

Bringing the Big Top Down

With the Democratic State Central Committee of Louisiana endorsing a convicted felon in the 6th Congressional District race, we see people running around as though their hair’s on fire and their butts are catching. With proclamations of the Democrats being corrupt and interested solely in the chance to get another seat in the House of Representatives marked with a big “D” we must ask: you’re just now noticing?

Is it OK for restaurants to publicly humiliate poor-tipping customers?

I am of the opinion that poor tippers are doing a disservice to their servers, and even if you don't feel your service was particularly good, it's better to bless that person than to try to teach them some sort of lesson by being chintzy.

If only Muslim states thought climate change was the "greatest challenge"

Secretary of State John Kerry has an interesting worldview if he believes that addressing "Muslim-majority" nations with the concept that climate change is the prevalent challenge for this generation. He probably wouldn't get much agreement among the very people he thinks we should be protecting.

Bernie Sanders Wants Rich People To Die

At least you can say Bernie Sanders is ideologically consistent. The self-proclaimed socialist unabashedly declared on Saturday that “we need a tax system which asks the billionaire class to pay its fair share of taxes and which reduces the obscene degree of wealth inequality in America.” It was particularly fitting that the speech was at an AFL-CIO convention.
