I'll give you a dime if you will give me a $5.00 bill

So, the Republicans are ready to pass an increase in the minimum wage, but only if it's linked to an elimination of the estate tax. The Democrats choice: vote against the minimum wage in order to block the estate tax cut -- and be accused of voting against it by the thugs, or vote for it and have to swallow the estate tax cut.

Typical of Rethuglicans. They can't give anything to the poor without stealing it away again to give it to the rich. Let's hope the public gets wise to these creeps -- every one of them should be voted down.

WASHINGTON - Republican leaders are willing to allow the first minimum wage increase in a decade but only if it's coupled with a cut in inheritance taxes on multimillion-dollar estates, congressional aides said Friday.

They almost parody themselves -- it is truly unbelievable: "Yeah, we'll poor workers get an extra dollar an hour, but only if extremely rich people get a multi-million dollar break in return. Rich people are people, too, ya' know."

SNL couldn't make up stuff like that.
