They need to pass more than the minimum wage they need to pass a living wage.
I will wait for your summation on the Libby trial, I don't have time to read the long version.
(sorry, I'll skip over that)
this is more of a concern this week, Friday to be exact:
The international quartet is to meet February 2 in the U.S. capital, according to the State Department.
US Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice will host Lavrov, UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon, German Foreign Minister Frank-Walter Steinmeier, European Union foreign policy chief Javier Solana, and EU External Relations Commissioner Benita Ferrero-Waldner.
and from non-US news site:
US testing missles
"they need to pass a living wage."
Are you referring to a cost of living wage? I don't think that will happen. So, the international quartet next month? Is Rice's boss, Cheney, accompanied her?
This week Friday is the meeting here.....will Cheney drop in? Who knows. Will the Chimp drop in? Let's hope not, we don't want to have to worry if there is a Gerbil speak translator around.

LOL! I only asked about Cheney because you know that Condi is on the job training.
It appears as though they are all on the job training. lol
