2011-12-12 "Wisconsin Senator: If You Are Still Earning Minimum Wage, You’re a Bad Worker" by Robin Marty

In yet another version of the Republican meme of “if you are poor, you’re lazy,” Wisconsin Senator Ron Johnson tells a group of constituents that you only make minimum wage for a short time, and that as long as you are a good worker, you’ll eventually make more money.
He then waxes nostalgically about his own time earning minimum wage — while living with his parents and having no familial expenses.
