“If by a "Liberal" they mean someone who looks ahead and not behind, someone who welcomes new ideas without rigid reactions, someone who cares about the welfare of the people-their health, their housing, their schools, their jobs, their civil rights and their civil liberties-someone who believes we can break through the stalemate and suspicions that grip us in our policies abroad, if that is what they mean by a "Liberal", then I'm proud to say I'm a "Liberal.”

Living Wage Calculator

Pennsylvania State University has developed a web-based living wage calculator that estimates the cost of living in communities and regions throughout the US. You can check by state, county or locality, to find out what the true living wage, not the minimum wage, is in your area. This is based upon a calculation of a wage that is required to meet minimum standards of living based upon the local cost of living. http://www.livingwage.geog.psu.edu/index.php
