    When it comes to the Federal minimum wage, they are equally bad, as is the point of the comic.

      Really? Are democrats opposed to changing that, or just not prioritizing it because it can get complicated and there are a million other concerns?

        It’s the first part. The vast majority of Democrats are “moderate” and “corporate captured.”

        It’s not a “both sides are equally bad in all respects.” It’s “both sides will not give us a change of law to enable a living wage be the standard.” It’s only speaking to that one aspect.

        It might also be a complicated topic, but you don’t solve a complicated topic by never starting on it.

        Are those “concerns” bigger than the concern of Trump winning the general election? Make a choice. Raising the federal minimum wage in order to avoid losing to Trump sounds like a bargain to me.
