JACKSONVILLE BEACH, Fla. (AP) — Republican presidential candidate Michele Bachmann said Friday she wouldn't rule out changes to the federal minimum wage as a way to lower the cost of doing business and lure corporations back to the United States.

Protect corporate interests over those that are without homes, jobs, food, etc.
How would she like to survive on $20/week while trying to find a job that may require $20 to put enough gas in the tank to go to interviews (if one manages to get an in-face interview), go to the FoodBank, go to DOL to participate in job search seminars.... Many Americans live on $0.00/week and are the Underclass that have been forgotten!
The rich get richer on the backs of the poor - This is Totally Unacceptable!
It is time for me to get active and volunteer for the upcoming election!

Re: "Bachmann says she'd consider minimum wage changes"
Michele Bachmann is head of the secret government department called the Ministry of truth. On the surface she appears to be just another of the useless parasites in Washington but upon closer inspection (thank you George Orwell) it becomes obvious that she has a hidden agenda, historical revisionism. Far from being the mindless bimbo that she plays on TV she is perhaps one of the most destructive forces trying to take away your freedom. We underestimated the destructive power of Bush (head of Newspeak) and big brother is betting that we will underestimate Michele Bachmann as well.

Re: "Bachmann says she'd consider minimum wage changes"
Not to go off topic, as this article shows just how much damage Bachmann will try to do if elected (which i am sure won't happen) -
http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2011/08/27/michele-bachmann-environmentalists-minimum-wage_n_938998.html
As president, Bachmann said she would unlock those resources and eliminate the Environmental Protection Agency.
"The radical environmentalists have demanded that we lock up all our
energy resources," she added. "President Bachmann will take that key out
of the door. I will unlock it."
The crowd at the upscale retirement community cheered wildly.
And Bachmann got a similar reception when she promised to eliminate
the "job killing" Environmental Protection Agency, saying that she would
close the agency down in a single trip. "We will turn out the lights
and we'll lock the doors," she said.
She will shut down the EPA.....what next? The tea party knows their days are numbered, so they are scrambling to do as much damage as possible while they still can....
