News that 252,000 jobs were created in December and that the unemployment rate fell to 5.6% was tempered somewhat by wages falling five cents for the month.
This is a good time to absolutely hammer republicans on the minimum wage. While they fiddle-fart around with whatever their hokum issue of the day is and refuse to work for a bump in the woefully inadequate federal minimum wage, we should be reminding Americans every day that we're the ones who want to pump billions into the American economy, and republicans are the ones who are causing wages to stagnate.
Democrats create jobs; republicans kill wages--it's as simple as that.
