Curtis Dixon Supports Bernie Sanders

[Donkees]

Curtis Dixon works in the collard fields in Clarendon County South Carolina. He has four children and he supports them with his field work, boxing greens at a rate of $1.50 a box. Dixon says that though South Carolina's minimum wage is one of the lowest in the nation at $7.75/hour, he sometimes doesn't even make that hourly rate though he's working from 7am to 7pm in the fields.
Dixon wants Bernie Sanders to win. He's telling all of his friends and family to get out to vote on February 27, and vote for Bernie Sanders, who supports a $15 an hour minimum wage.

3. I Agree With Curtis Dixon

No one in America should have to do this for that amount.

I agree with you Mr. Dixon!

FYI: your post said Sept. 27...should be Feb. 27

4. Well said Mr. Dixon!

It is not possible to raise a family on $7.75.

5. $7.75 an hour is wage slavery.

$15 is marginal, but at least you could afford the essentials.

7. I wish they aired this on TV in SC.

This is a powerful message. I wish many people would have been able to see this...

8. You'd have to sneek into the station in the middle of the night

to get this on the air.
