Bernie is pushing for 32/week.

If he was president we might have gotten it, but Biden sure as shit isn't even going to mention it.

American workers are more productive than at any point in history, it's just all the wealth goes into a very small number of pockets, and instead of having to pay taxes, they pay a small percent to politicians in both parties to ensure workers don't get any

I wouldn't say we'd have gotten it. Being president doesn't mean you control Congress.
