Here's a reference.

I'll bite. Which law is designed to allow businesses to pay lower wages and benefits? This is so tiring. So many people to starve, and so little time. My folks got their social security check last month, so we've failed there. And Medicare covered a big chunk of our friend's shoulder replacement. Damn.

Programs that Democrats champion and Republicans denigrate, Social Security, Medicare, the minimum wage, labor laws, overtime. These programs are so popular that the Republicans have trouble making headway against them, and you use that failure to claim that Republicans actually support them?

This business about the Dems looking out for the little guy while the Republicans only care about lowering taxes on the rich is an absolute relic, and I can't wait for it to self-destruct.

Maybe if the Republicans sided with the little guy once in a while, they could do something about that.
