Maryland becomes 6th state to have $15 minimum wage; Overriding Larry Hogan's veto

[88m3]

No because it has a solid majority support in polls

Hogan vetos popular Dem legislation, vetos it, watches it get overridden and then campaigns on said popular policy.

He did it in 2018

Stop electing him?

 

[Wild self]

most the min wage jobs, at least those in food service and retail, will be automated in 6 years...good luck

That means Basic Income will be a reality.....or French Revolution style protests

You can't pay people anything below a living wage and expect them to tolerate it.

We tried

Ben Jealous got 1 million votes. But had no resources.

Hogan got 1.27 million and had a huge war chest from real estate, big pharma and some Koch $$$. No GOP nominee for governor has ever gotten more than 885,000 votes until 2018.

No, overall vote. Montgomery County you need to win 65% as a Dem... Ben only got 55%

Ben got 71% of the black vote and 51% of Latinos

Hogan got 28% of black and 48% of Latinos

If you gonna be a Dem, you gotta get 80%+ of the black vote...

Capitalism is bad?

Capitalism is destined to destroy itself. At some point the elites at the top must value social cohesion over their own selfish greed. shyt like this isn’t sustainable the people are not rising now but in the 2020s when deep austerity will the theme to curb massive debt shyt will get ugly. It will make the Yellow Vest protest look like pillow fight.

Hogan's win was not determined by black voters. I can provide the voter files if you'd like.
