Lou Dobbs lectures
Lou Dobbs, once referred to as a "blithering idiot" by New York Times columnist Thomas Friedman, gives a lecture to everyone who believes the conclusions drawn by most economists about minimum wages:
Calling out the U.S. Chamber of Commerce and The Heritage Foundation by name, Dobbs lectured, “these people had better understand something that’s clear.” Dobbs said this was another battle in his almost trademarked “War on the Middle Class” on the November 8 “Lou Dobbs Tonight.”The fact is that minimum wage laws do tend to hurt the very people the laws are meant to help: the young, poor and unskilled.
“When the voters go to the trouble of an initiative…and say business is just pushing way too hard against the interests, the common good [of] working men and women,” continued Dobbs, that shows how important the issue is to “middle class Americans.”
