If you were pushing for a bill that raised the minimum wage to fifteen dollars, you’d at least pay your employees this new minimum wage, right? Well, not if you’re Bernie Sanders, who pays his interns twelve dollars instead of fifteen.
According to MRC TV, in a recent press release Sanders had this to say:
“It is a national disgrace that millions of full-time workers are living in poverty and millions more are forced to work two or three jobs just to pay their bills,” Sanders said at the outdoor rally near the Capitol. “In the year 2015, a job must lift workers out of poverty, not keep them in it. The current federal minimum wage of $7.25 an hour is a starvation wage and must be raised to a living wage.”
[…]“The federal minimum wage has not been raised since 2009. Increasing the minimum wage would directly benefit 62 million workers who currently make less than $15 an hour, including over half of African-American workers and close to 60 percent of Latino workers. If the minimum wage had kept up with productivity and inflation since 1968, it would be more than $26 an hour today.”
If the average American worker was in such a need for their wage to be increased, then why isn’t Mr. Sanders at least paying them what he thinks the minimum wage should be? This isn’t to say that people should be able to pay people these wages, but it’s imperative to practice what you preach if you’re running for president.

Love ya brother.
They’re interns not full time employees
He’s the only one not bought and paid for. No super PAC.
NOT TRUE AT ALL…a super PAC run by a nurses union, National Nurses United, has invested over US$1 million to support Sanders.
