Missouri Senate Candidates Don't Know Minimum Wage (Debate)

In a debate hosted by KMOX's Charlie Brennan on March 16, all three GOP Senate candidates were unable to say what the minimum wage is in the state of Missouri, but still insisted the minimum wage is too high. Candidates John Brunner and Todd Akin admitted they don't know the minimum wage. Sarah Steelman incorrectly guessed the amount. The minimum wage in the state of Missouri is currently $7.25



Of course- they don't know... but i'll betcha dollars to do-nuts that they pronounce it "Missourah" and believe that Jesus was/is a signer of The Constitution. ?To be fair- MacCaskill pronounces it that way, too...
