cool, how about a living wage tho
That’s not his job, that’s congress’s job. He can propose a bill, but wtf is the point when the house doesn’t even have a speaker and the current majority hasn’t brought a single bill to the floor for a vote.
Fight to put a solid majority of Dems in Congress, and you’ll get that. President can’t constitutionally do that.
You can tell these complaints are straight outta Beijing and Moscow because they literally cannot comprehend that the state leader can't just do shit unilaterally
I just wonder why Lemmy of all places.
Large number of instances run by tankies. Lemmy basically became "left"-wing voat in a few of the less entry level instances.

In case you weren't aware, the President isn't allowed to draft and ratify his own legislation.
Choo choo!!!! It's a gravy train! Cuz gravy will be the most fancy thing you'll ever be able to afford again.
We are talking about a living wage. As in, working a job gives you enough money to survive. Are things really that fucked up that people making enough to live off of would wreck the economy? Let it burn, then.
I think the person I replied to edited their comment. I could have sworn they said something about a train. Good God my reply makes me look like a monster...
