More tough love from Washington

Tennessee Senator Lamar Alexander has a great idea. Get rid of the minimum wage and instead give the working poor higher earned income tax credits.

Let me see if I get this straight? A guy is now back to making four bucks an hour at McDonalds and can't afford rent, to eat or gas for his car but it's all cool because the poor slob is going to get some money back on his taxes in March.

Does it make you feel any better to know that Alexander is the ranking Republican on the Senate Labor committee?

Do these people have a fucking clue?
