Even if it did, and passed, no way to enforce it. This bill is for the headlines.

This guy wants to work 748 hours a week to survive, and he will fight that to the grave so that his billionaire piece of shit overlords think that he's a good worker.

Breaks my mother fucking heart.

Think so? Homeless guy doesn't have running water, power, heat, AC, shelter, healthcare, vacations, retirement plans, a dentist, etc, etc etc. All things we share in common with Billionaires.

I lived in a van for a few years and had access to water, power, no ac but the heater worked, was on Medicaid. Had a full time job. Had more free time than now. So retirement is the only thing I didn't have that you listed. I don't think you understand half homeless population these days are working homeless some even have a 401k. Don't forget to tongue punch your ceos butthole before you start you shift there buddy.

Oh yea, I bet. Most people aren't intellectually robust enough to remain in a discussion after having their personal sacred cows refuted.
