New Mexico Update

Attention Albuquerque communists. The City Council is preparing to debate a living wage ordinance on May 16th. Joining red (communist not electoral map) leaning cities like San Francisco and Santa Fe, the Duke City's politicos are considering requiring businesses to pay higher wages. In the words of the great economist, Thomas Sowell, "the real minimum wage is always zero." Evidently the city fathers are worried that their tatoo wearing, motor cycle riding, ear and nose ring sporting children without their GED will never get a job with good pay. With the so called "Living Wage" law, they probably will never get a job in the private sector. Oh well, there are job openings in the evidence room of APD.
