a couple of years ago they came out with a living wage of $17
that was defined as
save for pension
healthcare
dental
vision
humane level of entertainment
savings
humane level (us) of living (i guess that means computer and tv? and roof and food)

i figure a couple of years would bring that up
and then you start negotiations HIGH and meet in the middle
you don't start at 'what you want'

as for me, i have much less respect for Mrs Clinton than i do MMe la Guillotine
