“Words change their meanings, just as organisms evolve.

“I think it's time we had a President who will provide the only real economic security: good jobs. A President who will provide middle class payroll tax relief to get money in the pockets of workers who will spend it, not more tax giveaways for those at the top to stimulate the economy in the Cayman Islands and Bermuda. A President who will index the minimum wage to inflation and raise it from a 30 year low, not increase the tax burden on the middle class and those struggling to join it.” ThinkingYearsRealJobsPresidentClassStruggleEconomyEconomicMiddleSecurityTaxesLowsIncreaseRaisesWorkersBurdenIslandsReliefMiddle ClassPocketsMinimumGood JobInflationMinimum WageGet MoneyPayrollEconomic SecurityPayroll TaxTax BurdenBermudaCayman Islands Author:John F.

“There is much in American society which I admire, but I have long held the view that the absence of an effective safety net in that country means that too many needy citizens fall by the wayside.

“If you take the burden of health care, of diseases off the backs of some other countries, it gives them a chance to use their own very limited resources in ways that help their people.
