you also didn't rebut a thing i said, not that your hypocrisy is rebuttable.
but tell me, if you think doubling the min wage is gonna make prices skyrocket, why is that not the case anywhere else in the world?
why is that only the case on fox news, and never in real life?

Pretty sure this is about the loss of jobs by cutting labor costs. NOT big Mac prices. I concede that i dont know or give a shit about how much a big mac costs ANYWHERE

how is it again that 30,000 a year isnt decent money when i just showed you how on person can support a family of 3 at 15 an hour full time? That also means that a couple both working minimum wage jobs could do the same thing. (In my area at least)
And how is it that you completely skip over anything that shows your wrong? Selective about what you read?
Big Mac prices are not what this is about, its about how the push for higher wages is making companies opt to use conputers to replace them.
Grocery stores often have self checkout aisles now, which allows the store to need less cashiers.
McDonald's will eventually need less people too with there touchscreens. Maybe not overnight, but it will happen.
If the cost of labor goes up, the company will try to regain the loss in one way or another. The most logical way, is to find a way to not need as many people per shift.
If the price of gas doubles, you would try to conserve gas right?

You obviously live in a place that is cheap as fuck, I think I just realized what the difference between the libs and repubs is... about 2,000 a month in rent.

Everyone should be able to make a living wage that they can live on... Even McDonald's employees... It's pretty sad to see a lot of people get angry about losing a small margin of profit....Hell you are paying someone a living wage... Why would you rather see them do horribly only to gain an extra few bucks? And if you say that raising their wage will put you out of business, you weren't doing good business anyway... I mean seriously 8 dollars an hour or whatever minimum wage is in your area that is BS and we all know it... You can't live on that... Rent,food,car payment, electricity, gas, water, trash, medical, etc... Then if you want them to get skilled, how do you expect them to pay for college on a minimum wage of 8 dollars and pay for everything else...? 15 dollars an hour is great as long as inflation doesn't rise too much along with it(but only time will tell) Seattle, Washington already raised the minimum wage and business is growing as people have more spending power...

Especially when most of the corporations against 15 an hour are making HUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUGE profits. If they gave up a little they might not be able to afford to buy a small country anymore though.

I would LOVE for it to be possible for everyone to make a living wage. But I'm a realist, and I don't think it's possible for our economy to support that.
I'm not rooting against it. I just don't think it's feasible.

OK, I understand. I couldn't start growing again until my youngest moved off to college.
You gonna consider growing when your teenager moves out?

you complain that doubling wages will double costs, then evidence is presented to you that directly contradicts this, so you have a hissy fit and say you don't care about that point you were trying to make.
pathetic.
i guess you've moved onto your next (and already) failed talking point, some shit about how jobs will be lost.
if that's true, then why is denmark's unemployment not three times as high as ours is?
i do like your random caps lock though. you so angry, little retard child.

that's not even what your own article said. it said it was to improve customer service. they just moved employees around so people would get their food quicker.
that's according to your own article, retard.
then why is there absolutely no correlation whatsoever between the minimum wage and unemployment over time?
do you understand that nothing you say has any basis in reality?
gas in an inelastic good, you fucking simpleton.
you have no business even pumping anyone's gas.
