Americans are still waiting for the trickle down. The billionaires are doing great however…
Either the economy is not booming, or the economy is irrelevant, because financial everything in the real world is fucking terrible.
living wages would go a long way but neither of the two ruling parties want to address it or anything else

Well here’s Democrats working on it it at both the Federal and State level. So your statement is at best incomplete.
At the Federal level:
Started effort in 2015: Democrats introduce bill to hike federal minimum wage to $15 per hour
Started effort In 2023: Democrats push for $17 minimum wage by 2028
At the state level:
Minimum wage bills pushed by Democrats in at least 30 states, including Utah
by the time the Democrats do something too late
we needed $17 an hour a decade ago and by 2028 it will be like this all over again with needing it raised again
This constant attempt at redirection is old and exhausting.
Democrats have been blocked at almost every turn by Republicans on this.
But where’s the outrage and finger pointing in their direction? No? Only democrats are at fault then after someone replied showing your erroneous statement?
Pull the other one next. Jesus, this is so exhausting dealing with you people moving the goal posts and refusing to acknowledge that half the Americans and half of political system is intentionally trying to punish and hurt everyone who isn’t a wealthy oligarch/business owner.
