Do you think he is aware now? (They did lock down the White House when some protesters threw tea onto the lawn). Or is he,as the liberals used to say about Bush "out of touch with the american people"?

So, I can only surmise that you think people are inherently greedy. However, neither do I believe that setting a minimum wage benefits anyone other than the politicians- it devalues the currency, period. I could explain it to you if you'd like, but really, would it matter? I think corporations pay the wages that maximize profits, if somebody thinks that they are worth more money, they are free to go get the corporation or someone else convince them to pay them more - except of course in a unioin environment. My own philosophy is that you are worth that for which you are willing to walk the door in the morning, and not a penny more. Nobody holds a gun to anyone's head in this country anyway to work a job. Establishing a minimum wage is purely inflationary. I'm not a free trader, I think Friedman was wrong about this. I believe that we need sane, fair trade laws that do not allow us to import goods from countries that employ slave or forced labor. I believe that Nixon's biggest screw up was opening trade with China. If we followed sane policies with respect to trade, most of the jobs that have left would still be in the States. -OMB Fluffy,

Does that include his cabinet you think? Doesn't seem as if he can find anyone who pays their taxes!
