I don’t understand why liberals can’t understand that raising the minimum wage requires ALL employees get a similar increase. Can’t start a new employee at the same or more than you are currently paying someone who has worked for you for years. So everyone gets more pay and they buy a new car, house, desiger shoes, etc, thus creating a higher demand for these products. Problem is the workers for the makers of those things also had to be paid more to comply with the minimum wage increase, so the cost of those thing will increase as much or more than the increase in pay they got. So the unskilled and unexperienced first time employee finds that they may get the $15 an hour but that soon afterwards they find that the $7 they were getting bought them just as much or more.

I know freepers know this and I know that the liberal politicians behind the move to increase the minimum wage understand it. The problem is those evil politicians use it a a wedge issue to the votes of those unskilled and low educated citizens and they really could care less if they starved to death. They use the same tactic with health care and politicians, inluding some republicans, also could care less if the poor are able to get medical treatment byond the fact that if they die they lose their vote, well at least their legal vote.

I see your problem right up front. You actually think they don’t understand, they do, they understand all of it, they thrive on power, they lust for the contrlo over their fellow man, they covet the thought of wielding unspeakable power over the citizenry. They absolutely understand that the more destitute, poor, broke, and helpless they make the average citizen, the more they will be empowered. The newly expanding class of serf’s will continue to vote for the Slave Masters for their daily bread.

in Other words, they are JUST PLAIN EVIL in their hearts and souls, nothing has changed with the average democrat since the 1850’s and the sooner you recognize and come to grips with Pure Evil in it’s most basic form, a Democrat, you willl continue to wonder why for the rest of your life.

statists believe in central planning. The minimum wage is simply one manifestation of their worship of central planning
