The positive, economic effect of lowering the minimum wage to $0

[UncleBuck]

If commerce were not regulated (cronyistic protectionsim via government edict) that same burger flipper could set up a grill on his front yard and open his own business. If he made a good product, or a bad product, the free market would sort out the income part.

If somebody shit on his lawn, he could kick their ass out in a hurry too.

i have won the debate.

 

[UncleBuck]

So if the cost to an employer rises, do they normally swallow the increase or raise their prices?

wages outpace rise in prices every time, idiot.

 

[UncleBuck]

Free market wages for the poor can not work in an illegal alien amnesty zone like California.

is that you again, FDD?

another racist sock puppet to prove how totally not racist you are?

 

[UncleBuck]

you don't know me, ben and you have know idea who i am or what i've done in my life..i've made more money legally than you will in your cash cropping career.

outsourcing also kills america.

but uncle benis has a large glovebox on his toyota tundra.

no driveway to park it on, though.

 

[UncleBuck]

The only thing killing America is the likes of Obama and his smug "you didn't build that" bullshit.

if obama is killing america, then why is america doing so well?

 

[UncleBuck]

I guarantee if you gave those shoe making jobs to some Wisconsin labor union.....you'd be wearing $500 Nike's....and they'd probably fall apart within a month.

yet another prediction from benis, too bad not a single one of his predictions has ever proven to come true.

 

[UncleBuck]

Speak for yourself. It's not the great depression for me. We've got so much money we don't know what to do with it.

maybe start with building a driveway.

What's a "toilet"?

 

[UncleBuck]

Actually less. While in high school I worked a summer job at $0.60/hour

you dumbass. min wage has been higher for your whole life than it is now.

are you 112 years old?

 

[UncleBuck]

That's a nanny attitude. What an employee does with his money and life style is none of my business.

what if they spend it on sex with gay prostitutes though? then is it your business?

 

[Rob Roy]

What's a "toilet"?

 

[UncleBuck]

I know you. You abandoned your children

you burned yours alive.

$320 is a little steep. It's amazing how much people will pay to acquire something that raises their self esteem.

Of course there are people that blow thousands of dollars on new cars etc. because they believe the model will buy them an image.

Tou mean we don't get that hot model lying on the hood?

 

[UncleBuck]

Taking money from those who earned it and giving it to others doesn't increase the amount spent by the public. Your "aggregate demand" theory is bullshit.

wrong on all counts like usual, red.

have you ever made a factually correct statement, ever?

 

[Red1966]

I see, I thought you were one of the ones going in the opposite direction for a moment

Feel free to cast a vote if you don't mind

The fight for a living wage is front and center this election. LA just voted on $15/hour minimum wage (2nd largest city in the country), so that makes a statement. I'm 100% with you that the minimum wage is simply not enough to survive on basic necessities. Opponents want to bitch that it's too much, let em bitch about the price of rent, the price of milk or eggs. The middle class has been fucked for too long, this is our time to take what we're owed and profess the justification for it. CEO's and shareholders walk away with the product of our labor. This is unacceptable. Something needs to change, and if nothing changes voluntarily, something will change by force. See the French Revolution. I just read an excerpt from one of my history books that almost exactly mirrors the current USA landscape, and it didn't really work out too well for Louis XVI..

So the next couple decades should be very interesting in American politics

thank you TB!

currently, my only benefit is $193 from SNAP.

you are correct in saying that i've paid into SS over the years..it is however, to the point i will receive maximum benefit when i retire without any further deposits from myself..so if i never worked again a day in my life..guess what folks?..also had a marriage for 11 years..i get which evers bigger..and guess what?..it's going to be my SS.

$6 a day to feed yourself?

red can save the taxpayers that money with a $0.02 match.

 

[UncleBuck]

Restaurant employees don't make $15.00/hr. It's more like $3.00/hr, up from $2.00/hr just a couple years ago.

don't forget tips or the law that mandates that they make min wage if tips don't get them there.

dumbass.

 

[UncleBuck]

The needs and desires of the business determine whether that business exists. That trumps everything.

well, red1966 also endorses pedophilia and slavery by this logic.

 

[UncleBuck]

I think you may have misunderstood my previous post. It was regarding the lunches kids do bring form home being "monitored" by the schools. There have been instances of schools micro managing bag lunch contents.

yeah, we should just let growing children eat whatever they want, no matter how unhealthy.

oh, and let's not forget that you should be able to pay them to have sex with you.
