He Sort of Said This

So, the Official Barack Odumbo Twitter account is full of exactly what you'd expect, dumb platitudes, moronic graphics and blatant propaganda. Most of it is so stupid or full of logical fallacies that it trying to argue against it is like trying to untie a Gordian Knot of Ignorance.

But this one. This one is special.

The last time the federal minimum wage was raised was five years ago today. #TBT #LiveTheWage pic.twitter.com/WBxGM6PfgL

And this one.

A lot has changed in five years—but the minimum wage has stayed the same. #TBT #LiveTheWage pic.twitter.com/TFodpGEmgr

Did you catch that? My math here is going to be faulty, but no more so than the "wage gap" math the White House likes to spew.

So, According to my faulty math, these two dietary staples have gone up TWENTY PERCENT during His Majesty's administration. Not only that, but I can tell you without even having to calculate that the price of gasoline has gone up ONE HUNDRED PERCENT since he took office.

So, his solution to the problem is not to find a way to bring the price of the necessities of life down, but to cause businesses to spend more on labor, which will, of course, inevitably cause price increases and bring down the real income and standard of living of those of us who made the effort to get out of our minimum wage jobs.

Why is it that EVERY LIBERAL "SOLUTION" TO EVERY PROBLEM REQUIRES THEM TO SPEND MORE OF MY MONEY?!?!?!?!?

And the reason I said he "sort of " said this is because, much like his speeches, he doesn't write his own tweets. I'm not sure what the guy actually does. In fact, google "absentee president" and you;ll see that even the mainstream press is finally starting to catch on.
