I like him. I think he’s a future president, if people can get over him being gay.

Curious timing

Concerned that his votes get evenly distributed enough to push people over viability thresholds and lead us to an awful convention.

Him being gay is going to be a problem in running for the Presidency for the foreseeable future. I mean, not for me, but tough to get the D nom when pulling like 0 percent of the AA vote.

Most of my staff is between 16-22 years old. They are in school, working 15-20 hours a week. They aren’t living off of this check, it’s their first job or something to help save towards a car or whatever. I do not think they should be earning 15.00 an hour. I’d be fine with an age restriction but Bernie said no to that.

At least you admit they are not living off this paycheck

Why should they not earn 15 an hour? Because they're young and don't need it?

Biden will beat Trump like a drum.

I think what Pete is is certain that Pete was born to be president. How or for what hardly matter.

Unless ironically, I don’t think that’s what pac meant.

Because his business needs to actually make money to succeed or all of them will be making $0 an hour.

Your business will figure it out and make do. Incredibly short sighted to take a proposal that may affect you in some small way and throw out the whole agenda- which will better the standing of almost everyone in the country, especially those of us not mega-rich-in favor of a guy who is threatening our very democracy, let alone further propping up the wealthy on the backs of working people.

Goes to the larger issue of unintended consequences on businesses and the consumer. If that was instituted for all ages, I wouldn’t hire any kid looking for a first job. I’d rather hire an adult.

how exactly do people think $15 gets implemented? States across the country are doing it/have already achieved it and it's done incrementally. It's been fine. we have kept it so low for so long that we don't realize how ridiculous it is.

The DNC had 4 years to figure out who their nominee would be and it’s the socialist from last time or Joe Biden. Since those are my options, yeah, everything is on the table with how it relates to my financial future. I don’t think it’s short sighted

So Peter nails and fucks Mike by addressing the press when Bloomberg bought his 3 minutes. LoL

your financial future is not tied up with paying your employees less money; if you think that that's kind of sad.

I'm a sucker or whatever but Pete is so impressive
