NRA Is Evil

Not that NRA. The one for gun nuts. (Not that they aren't). The other NRA. The one that affects over 15 million workers, and by extension, all of us. I've said it before, and I repeat it now. These guys are bad for us. All of us.

And here's a piece of why, and how:

Sen. Sherrod Brown (D-Oh) has a thing or two to tell the NRA:

NRA HATES WORKERS

If all of that isn’t enough evil-doing, the NRA’s main agenda is to keep workers down byspreading fear about the alleged economic doom that would bestow the restaurant industry by meager increases in worker wages and paid sick days. The federal minimum wage is stuck at $7.25 an hour. Can you live on that? Today is February 13, a reminder that the federal minimum wage for tipped workers is only $2.13 an hour – it’s been stuck there since 1991 – or, more accurately, the NRA and its members have kept it there. The NRA wants the restaurant industry to stand alone in not having to pay its own workers – claiming that we, the customers, pay their workers’ wages for them through our tips.
