What say you?

[Arm_Bears]

I rarely eat fast-food anymore.

However, on those occasions when I do, I’m convinced that the people taking my order are overpaid at minimum wage.

[BenLurkin]

Astroturf?

Of course.

[unixfox]

If they want to do that then they will have to raise the price of a burger to $15.00.

Good luck staying in buisiness.

[NRA1995]

Too bad people have forgotten that the minimum wage was never intended to support a family of four.

[cripplecreek]

Yeah its asshole turf.

[Walrus]

Why just fast food workers? Don’t all of us hard-working Americans DESERVE a raise?

Let’s bump that ol’ minimum wage up to $300 an hour. Then we’ll all have lots of money.

Corporations are all infinitely rich, don't you know. /s

Politicians don't understand how to run a business.
Minimum wage is for entry level unqualified labor.
The higher it is, the harder it is for young people to enter the market.
Lower it and there will be less unemployment.
There should not even be a minimum wage set by gov't. Not all jobs are the same.

Leftists are going to increase the prices of products and what’s unfortunate is most people don’t realize that will happen.

Gas Stations have very good selection of sandwiches these days and with one of their cards you can eat for free

This is not astro-turf. It is an openly coordinated attempt to try and increase the minimum wage.

Everything that is being done is perfectly legal.

And as always, it will go nowhere, because even most Democrats realize that you need to keep the golden goose alive if you want the golden eggs.

I know that for dyed-in-the-wool libertarians any minimum wage is an abomination, but the way it has worked out there is essentially no minimum wage. Inflation has basically kept the minimum wage at a level where businesses are OK with paying it.

The unions will forever be advocating for a minimum wage tied to inflation, but it doesn't look like they will ever get it.

So be happy ... at least when it comes to the minimum wage. Feel free to be depressed about the debt, deficit, NSA spying scandal, Benghazi, IRS selective auditing, Trayvon Martin race-baiting, etc.

[Tanniker Smith]

Do they seriously believe that anyone will pay them $15 to work at a fast food joint? Moreover, do they believe that they'll get paid for the hours that they walked off the job today?

They'll soon find that the only result of their actions is that their paychecks will be smaller this week.
