| Message | I support Richard Moore's proposal. Our government should be involved in protecting the least of those in our society, those who have no leverage and voice. I disagree with Mr. Gary Hull who said yesterday on WUNC's "The State of Things" that people who want highter wages should work harder and get better jobs. Mr. Hull arrogantly and incorrectly assumes minimum wage workers do not work hard. I have personally observed many minimum wage workers working very hard and working to the maximum of their skills, intelligence and education. All of us as consumers benefit from the work product of minimum wage jobs and it is morally indefensible for us as a society not to protect those whom employers are not willing to pay a living wage. |

| Message | I expect nothing less of North Carolina, than to be a leader for the nation. If only we'd be so bold, and take a leadership role opposing this ill-begotten war and so many other inept decisions of this illicit administration. Will those with an ounce of patriot blood please call upon NC to redeploy our National Guard to NC soil, and implore our representatives and senators to take a progressive North Carolinian stand for the truth! |

| Message | Great Job Treasurer Moore!! -- It is nice to see a politician show real leadership - this will help raise the standard of living not only for the +/- 100,000 citizens making $5.15/hour, but for all of North Carolina's citizens |

| Message | Prices are constantly rising and the cost of living increases so why shouldn't we increase the minimum wage. It is an excellent idea. Thank you Mr. Moore. |
