On the other, a $15 minimum wage is more beneficial to those deep in poverty.

The problem with increasing the minimum wage is that the cost of goods and services will also rise. Look at Seattle who has already raised the Min. wage to $15 an hour. Less jobs are available for those who are less skilled. Fast food restaurants are beginning to use kiosks to take orders so they can reduce their work force.

Raising the min. wage won't solve the problems the Democratic party say they will.

That should read "The GOP will RETAIN control of the House".

NO. We don't need to cut down military spending. We should be increasing military spending at a time where ISIS number are continously growing. This a problem that directly affects us and we can't continue to decrease funding to our Military and expect ISIS to just go away. That is a very bad idea.

I like Marco Rubio and believe he would be a good a nominee, however I do believe Trump will be the Republican nominee and will get my vote in the General. The last thing this country needs is Hillary as President (that is if she doesn't go to jail first). Bernie Sanders is even worse and wants to make everything free and has no real way to fund any of it.

Sometimes I strongly believe I'm like the only Republican in NS.
