The problem is that anyone who comes out against a hike in the min. wage will instantly be labelled a racist capitalist pig who wants to see children starving in the streets.
What is needed is a coherent response to that assertion, one that will ring true with the same people that the Dem’s are trying to reach. Any suggestions?
We’ll give you $15, but first you’ll have to get your entry level experience working as a volunteer.
It is nothing more than a price inflation catalyst. The only ones it helps is those that get it at first. Prices will rise to match the new floor, as they always do. It is nothing more than buying votes and it is poison to our economy, in the long run.
Why not $100 an hour. In the answer to that question is the answer to why it is not a good idea.
Sounds like vote buying. Is that legal? I forgot this is a Democrat scheme so it is legal for them.
How is a Federal minimum wage even constitutional in the first place. Is it a tax?
ROBOTS will replace minimum wage workers, as shown in EU, when McDonalds said it would place hundreds with robots to flip burgers, etc.
So, it will be like the 72 virgins for suicide bombers, you may find 72 virgins in hell, however Jesus said there is no marriage/sex in heaven. Bible only allows sex in marriage, no marriage in hereafter, so they get something they cannot use! Like Obamacare!
Socialists are greedy/lazy, and do not think things thru. Yes, it would be nice for all to make that kind of money, but not cost efficient for company to make a profit.
Now, $15 hour will become something you might get, but will lose with robots. McDs said robots do not get sick, work same for overtime, all three shifts, and save company money!:)
"Why do you suppose that hamburgers which used to cost 25c now cost $8??
"Do you know what inflation means? How it is caused?
Do you really think that you will ever "catch up" if your work is worth less than $15? or $50?
"Are you aware that every unionized thug or bureaucrat's (but I repeat myself) union agreement and raises are based on the existing minimum wage?
"The system truly IS rigged against you.
"YOU LITERALLY CAN NEVER CATCH UP! EVEN THE MINDLESS MOBS WHO "SUPPORT" YOU KNOW THIS AND RELIES ON KNOWING THEY CAN NEVER "FALL BEHIND"
Even mental incompetents can grasp the concept if they hear it often enough.
