Latest Insult to Gulf Coast by Republicans

The President and the Republican party have waived the prevailing wage law for workers doing reconstruction.

Imagine that...

Your home has been destroyed, but you can't get a job doing reconstruction that pays a living wage... even if you're a skilled worker.

Why? So companies like Haliburton can offer wages significantly below what you'd been paid before the disaster and make larger profits for their executives... I wonder if the VP will get a bonus?

The Gulf Coast already has low wages and poverty... but not enought by Republican standards.

This is a law that has been in place for over 50 years. Shut down by crazy "can't pay employees too little" conservatives.

Let's just change the name of the United States to "Mexico II".
