That is interesting stuff, and how we should be thinking. Dig this, in Alaska State workers have always worked 7.5 hour days. Dems did that. Alaska was originally formed by liberals. Only ones who could read. Earnest Gruening who was a major designer of our constitution and a senator was one of only two senators to vote against the Tonkin Gulf vote. The other being Oregon's Wayne Morse. What drives me nuts is the mindless rhetoric on the right that talks about "creating jobs" but never says how and uses the rhetoric to keep minimum wages low. And they don't address time lines and no one ever calls them on it. There is a need for minimum wages and jobs NOW. Yet the plan the pubs have would take place in some future they never define. Present versus future. Drives me nuts.
