    Who said it’s on the workforce? It should be on the cunts that are driving energy prices through the roof

      Wage stagnation from greedy corps and almost non-existent minimum wage increases has been happening FAR longer then the current energy shit.

      For an equivalent minimum wage to the 1950s, just accounting for inflation, we would need to be at $20/hr. If you’re not making that, then you’re making less than a McDonald’s worker in 1955.
