What I learned as a Washington insider for a quarter of a century is that Washington buys compliance. By purchasing compliance, Washington can continue to masquerade the US as "the indispensable people, a light unto the world," while Washington murders people in half a dozen countries and destroys the infrastructure, housing, and environment of those countries, simultaneously dispossessing the American middle class, destroying civil liberty, and locking the poor into an underclass.
Until the government is brought back into compliance with the rule of law and the will of the people, ameliorating hardships sustains the evil empire.
Unz is a genuine reformer. But reforms can have unintended consequences, and that is what worries me about raising the minimum wage.
