What happens when you tax the rich and raise the minimum wage? Meet one of USA's best economies (http://www.dailykos.com/story/2015/02/25/1366806/-What-happens-when-you-tax-the-rich-and-raise-the-minimum-wage-Meet-one-of-USA-s-best-economies)

When Minnesota Governor Mark Dayton took office in 2011, Minnesota had more than a $6 billion dollar deficit and an unemployment rate of 7%.

Today, Minnesota's unemployment rate is now below 4% (http://www.deptofnumbers.com/unemployment/minnesota/) and they have a budget surplus of over $1.2 billion dollars. (http://blogs.mprnews.org/capitol-view/2014/02/state-budget-surplus-now-1-23-billion/) How did Mark Dayton do this? Did he heed his Republican opponent Tom Emmer's advice? (http://theuptake.org/live-video-post/tom-emmer-on-jobs-budget-plan/)



Make no mistake, government cannot create the jobs we need
to turn our economy around, but private business people can. State
government can either help improve the necessary business climate – as I
will do if elected governor – or it can hurt job development, as my
opponents’ proposals to maintain the status quo would do.



No. No, he didn't. (http://www.huffingtonpost.com/carl-gibson/mark-dayton-minnesota-economy_b_6737786.html)

I don't get the connection?????????????????

Does Minnesota have so many rich that the spending was reduced?

What help to the out of work is robbing the rich?

This is like saying that due to robbing the old woman on the block, things improved due to having to hire one more cop.

I don't get the connection between taxing the rich and having less out of work.

What about those who were counted out of work, still have no job yet due to rules, don't get counted?

A huge force of out of work don't get counted.

Then there is this nonsense that Minnesota has so many rich that he raised billions of dollars in new revenue.
