Live with a posture of humility

In today’s society, we are taught that we are deserving of anything and everything we want. We are told to love ourselves despite our flaws. We are told to embrace who we are and be unapologetically ourselves. While these words seem uplifting and positive, that could not be further from the truth.

Give Americans a raise, it’s long overdue

As part of his $1.9 trillion “American Rescue Plan,” President Joe Biden has proposed raising the national minimum wage to $15 an hour from its current rate of $7.25. Such a wage increase, the Congressional Budget Office (CBO) estimates, would lift 1.3 million workers out of poverty. This proposal came as no surprise, as many states and cities have already raised their minimum wages to $15, and in 2019, House Democrats passed the same measure, although it died in the Senate.
