Let Them Eat (Yellow)Cake

Millionaire 'Dick' Cheney (R-Halliburton) has seen fit to advise us po'folks that it's our fault we can't achieve the American Dream.
Vice President Cheney:
"The American dream begins with saving money and that should begin on the very first day of work [...] Too often, workers are living paycheck to paycheck and are not saving sufficiently"
It gets worse. At the same conference:
Commerce Secretary Don Evans, said that a poll conducted for the lobby group found that nearly three out of five Americans between the ages of 35 and 49 are saving less than $10,000 a year. "For most, this will prove too little to support a comfortable middle-class retirement"

The Fed minimum wage is $5.15 an hour. At $5.15/hr, 40 hours/wk, 52 weeks/year a minimum wage worker earns $10,712. Well, I guess a responsible person would live on $712 a year ... WTF!
What does the White House have to say about minimum wage:
raising the minimum wage hurts the poor. It takes away jobs, keeps people on welfare, and encourages high-school students to drop out.
This 'Dick' needs a chainsaw bris.
