Paul Ryan whiffs on WI winimum wage
Millionaire and fancy-wine connoisseur, Paul Ryan
could not tell the NY Times what is the minimum wage in Wisconsin.
For the record, the answer is a rock bottom $7.25/hr., frozen there by Ryan right-wing GOP pal Gov. Scott Walker who has also called the minimum wage concept "lame," but also believes $7.25 is living wage.
Easy to say when the public is paying you more than $12,000 a month, providing the Governor's mansion, airplanes, cars, drivers, expenses, etc.
More about Walker's minimum wage 'beliefs,' here, and his further attacks on the poor, here.
But back to know-nothing Ryan, a/k/a Speaker of the House of Representatives:

At the New York Times TimesTalk with @SpeakerRyan, he wasn't able to answer a very simple question:
"What's the minimum wage in Wisconsin?"
