  1. Who cares the system is broke give me free money now Joe Biden

  2. Making money is an action. Keeping money is behavior, but “growing money is wisdom”. I found this out a week ago after getting a $10,000 return on my $3,000 investment in 7 days.

  3. Minimum wage should be $0.00 for everyone. Your wage is negotiable between the employer and the employee. Raising minimum wage leads to fewer jobs and higher prices. If raising minimum wages is so good, then raise them to $99,000.00 per hour and see how many jobs exist and how much a cheeseburger costs.

  4. I think we should be giving most of the unemployment benefits to people with disabilities.

  5. A+ video!
    Great message!

  6. A Ghanaian here🤚🏿 and Sam George is my MP, my hubby and i bought our first home in his constituency and i'm so glad and privileged to be able to vote for him in next year's elections. He definitely has great prospects for the presidency in the future but not now. There're more great leaders ahead of him and he's taking advantage of his age to learn from the masters till the time is ripe for him. 🫡

  7. These pathetic and out of touch actors and actresses pushing their uneducated and downright crazy notions and political opinions make me sick. No one makes 50 cents an hour.

    It’s not equity to pay someone who’s less able than someone who deliver 110% six days a week

  8. Where was she to be vocal for the people? Only want to change laws /rules when it applies to herself

  9. Good will wants us for $0.00 x hour. 😂

  10. Huh? It's very hard to watch her brain try to pretend to work.

  11. And what they did is they wind up shutting down all of those programs even though they got little pay a lot of my friends including myself look forward to going to work every day because it gave us a sense of purpose but now all of them programs have been closed down and we can't do that no more
