0bama should have to pay an undertime tax.
hard to get OT on 29 hours a week.
NOT satire. I don’t see the word satire in key words, or topics, or anywhere.
The guy is on drugs. Gotta be.
What do you expect? Obama believes that social justice can be achieved through redistribution schemes. The greatest correlation with the establishment of social justice is the creation of real wealth through productive capitalism. Obama , the community organizer, loathes capitalism and understands it less. Redistribution schemes historically perpetuate poverty and political instability.
I would like to bank hours so I can take of once in a while.
They don’t want OT. They want freebies from Obama’s stash.
Oh. Wait.
How exactly does Obama deem that private companies should suddenly start paying more salary?
Here we go - more unemployment. Thank God we have a Federal Reserve which can manipulate interest rates, print money and monetize debt to support it all.
These things always backfire. They just call in temps and the worker loses the extra bucks.
Very generous with other people’s money.
Not the government’s role to determine this.
Obama has never worked overtime in his entire life.
Obama’s trying to implement the full Greece model.
increase in minimum wage. Increase in overtime pay scale.
Nobody mentions that with it - income taxes get increased and the feds generate more tax revenue without actually increasing taxes.
Pretty much any idea this self-proclaimed genius comes up with is going to be a job killer. Probably because he is a little too awesome.
Who needs overtime if you are making 1000.00 per week. I don’t understand this.
Note that the states have never delegated to the feds, expressly via the Constitution, the specific power to regulate either intrastate minimum wage or overtime rates.
More specifically, regardless what FDR’s activist justices wanted everybody to believe about Congress’s Commerce Clause powers (1.8.3), a previous generation of state sovereignty-respecting justices had clarified that the feds have no power to regulate intrastate commerce as evidenced by the following excerpt.
”State inspection laws, health laws, and laws for regulating the internal commerce of a State, and those which respect turnpike roads, ferries, &c. are not within the power granted to Congress [emphases added].” —Gibbons v. Ogden, 1824.
Getting back to the 17th Amendment, the Founding States had not only established the federal Senate, but had granted the power to elect federal senators uniquely to state lawmakers. This is because the Founding States had expected senators to protect their states by killing bills which not only steal 10th Amendment-protected state powers, but also steal state revenues associated with those powers as evidenced by the next excerpt.
“Congress is not empowered to tax for those purposes which are within the exclusive province of the States.” —Justice John Marshall, Gibbons v. Ogden, 1824.
But state lawmakers later caved into pressure by misguided, low-information citizens and ratified 17A, foolishly giving up the voices of the state legislatures in Congress by doing so.
The problem now is that low-information voters go home after voting for their favorite senators and watch football, clueless to the following major constitutional problem. Corrupt federal senators are working in cahoots with the corrupt House to pass vote-winning bills which steal unique state powers such as the power to regulate minimum wage and overtime rates.
Note that by unconstitutionally raising minimum wage and overtime rates that wage earners will have even more illegal federal taxes taken out of their paychecks.
Also consider that the corrupt Senate then confirms activist justices to the Supreme Court who then declare that the unconstitutional laws that the Senate helped the House to pass are constitutional.
What a racket!
In fact, lawless Obama undoubtedly knows that even if the House was to impeach him that the Senate would probably not remove him from office.
The bottom line is that the corrupt Senate, not the executive or judicial branches, is arguably the most unconstitutionally powerful office in the land imo.
The 17th Amendment needs to disappear, and corrupt senators, a lawless president, and activist justices along with it.
So will economist be surprised when these workers see their hours cut to avoid OT?
I don’t think this faggot ever had a real job in his entire life.
Another couple of years under the rule of this communist moslem foreign degenerate and we’d be just like Zimbabwe.
Now he’s busy dictating overtime.
