Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez responded to a critical remark Ivanka trump about one of the points of the course, the Green New Deal. Adviser and the President’s daughter will never understand what it’s like to work for a living wage, said Congresswoman from new York.
«I don’t think most Americans want deep down to something they gave. People want to work for what they get — said Ivanka trump in an interview with Steve Hilton on Fox News on February 25. — I think that the idea of a guaranteed minimum is not what the majority wants. They want to be able to get a job. They want to be able to live in a country where there is potential for career growth.»
But a member of the house of representatives argues that the productivity of American workers over the years, and the salary is no.
«As someone who actually worked for tips and hourly rate all my life… I can tell you that most people want to get enough money to live, wrote Ocasio-Cortez. — A living wage is not a gift, that’s right. Workers often pay far less than the value they create».
As a person who actually worked for tips & hourly wages in my life, instead of having to learn about it 2nd-hand, I can tell you that most people want to be paid enough to live.
A living wage isn’t a gift, it’s a right. Workers are often paid far less than the value they create. https://t.co/P5FsQuhCTW
