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.

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