Anyone think that'll work?
At all?
Even a chance at success?
Obama: Income inequality "the defining challenge of our time" - CBS News:
"Mr. Obama also said he would work to
improve college affordability, expand the availability of preschool,
protect collective bargaining for unions, and
urged Congress to pass the Paycheck Fairness Act, the Employment Non-Discrimination Act, and raise the minimum wage.
He stopped short of identifying a new minimum wage number – “we just want it to be higher,” a White House official told CBS News, indicating the president could settle for something between his $9.00 suggestion made in his 2013 State of the Union address and a $10.10 wage proposed by Democrats in Congress.
Speaking broadly about entitlement programs, Mr. Obama said more should be done to help the long-term unemployed, whose benefits are set to expire three days after Christmas, and encourage private saving for retirement."
