Fiction based on Fact: The next Mother Jones will bring business and labor together to turn the upside down economy in her hometown right side up. Coming soon: Molly and Mother Jones, a contemporary novel. jerryash https://facebook/HellraiserClub ___________________________________________________ As several of the nation’s top business leaders prepare to rally support behind the Fair Minimum Wage Act, one of those attendees spoke out Wednesday about how Congress has left workers at the mercy of big companies. Former AT&T CEO and current Managing Partner of InterMedia Partners Leo Hindery Jr. sat down with HuffPost Live on Wednesday, explaining how the minimum wage issue is attacked for all the wrong reasons. Hindery Jr., who will be in Washington Thursday for meetings with senators, said millions of people are in a perpetually under-earning state because of money in politics. We sold our Congress to big money interests years ago, he said. There is no lobbying interest on behalf of a low-paid worker. Nobody. Nobody represents them, yet somebody obviously represents Wal-Mart in Washington and McDonalds in Washington.
