@Hypocrisy_45 @saikatc @PronouncedSteen Imagine telling a southern farmer in 1850 that he should have to pay his workers. He'd probably be pissed because not much profit and he might go out of business. If your business can't pay workers a living wage you don't deserve to have a business.

@juliaioffe Polling shows a majority of voters in Arizona support getting rid of the filibuster. So if voter wishes mattered it would make sense to support. But voter wishes don't matter. So your point doesn't matter.
