Good afternoon.
Here is a novel idea (not really), get rid of the Federal minimum wage. Let the states set whatever they want and sit back and watch the economy boom.

Efficiencies and productivity by definition will require less employee work hours to do the same work. You are trying to separate the two and that makes no sense. In some cases that job will never again need another human to do it, e.g. touchscreen ordering of fast food.
Humans will always want more so there will always be an economy that requires human labor. You would have to speculate on a sci-fi future to imagine any different kind of world. In our world, some jobs will go away permanently and anyone who was doing that job will have to find another line of work.
I think about a lot of things. Thank you.
No, I don’t think every single American can make a high end wage even if we cut all these “welfare” benefits which I support doing.
There are some darn dumb people in this world and in America, God love them, and there is nothing wrong with them doing honorable but lower paying work.
Productivity is a good thing even for those whose labor may be less valuable.
*Having no job is the cruelest ‘wage cut’ of all.*
And it’s the cruelest tax too.
and you know nothing of the lack of work ethic in those people...NOTHING. You’re living in a fantasy bubble where there are millions and millions of honest hardworking but not very smart Americans just wanting to be the best ditch digger they can be......
you’re smoking something.....
