Maybe they should unionize. That’ll teach those pesky small businesses.

Unions are the ones pushing this minimum wage crap.

Most people don’t know that those pushing the min wage increases #1 don’t give a damn about low wage workers, and #2 already make way over Min wage. In fact they couldn’t care less if every one of the minimum wage workers lose their job!

Why? Because many union contracts have a clause that automatically raise their wages when the minimum wage goes up.

A common clause would say...lazy communist employee ‘A’ will get $27 per hour, OR... 3 three times the minimum wage plus $3.58 per hour for the duration of this contract.

It doesn’t take a genius to figure out who benefits most if minimum wage is raised by $2 and hour, communist slug A’s wage just went up by $6 an hour instantly! Who cares if the poor schmuck making minimum wage gets fired, we get more money and union dues increase!

Double the minimum wage to $15 and commie bastard ‘A’ just got a $22.50 hour raise! PS...commie slug ‘A’ likely is a public sector employee, so you’ll be paying that increase.

Unions are like baby seals, liberals think they’re cute, I think they should be clubbed at birth, skinned, and their carcasses’ fed to the sharks.
