Bernie to re-introducing legislation to raise the federal minimum wage from $7.25 to $15 an hour.
When will these socialists learn that some of the work people do are not worth $15 an hour? If someone can only produce a value of $7.25 an hour why should someone have to pay them $15 an hour? Reminds me of why the American Samoas have a 25-30% unemployment rate. The united States got involved (Thanks Nancy Pelosi!) and forced the largest employer (Starkist Tuna) to jack up their min wage. Well the company couldn't afford to operate there and shut down their facility leaving half the island unemployed. This is a beautiful example of socialism at work.

Federal min wage in 1991 was $4.25 an hour. Are you telling me that $7.25 is fair 27 years later? Cost of living has gone up almost yearly but our min wage has not.
A factory job I started out doing in 1990 just out of High School I made $7.50 and when I left in 2001 I was making $15.75 per hour cause of moving up the food chain. In 2018 this same factory starts workers out at $16.35 per hour. I think min wage should be $12.

I'm in favor of this, but it should only apply to companies making at least $100 million in profits each year or more. Wal-mart makes billions, they can afford to pay their people $15. A lot of their people go on food stamps or welfare because they only make 8 bucks.

nah, cause then you will always have MCD workers getting underpaid while CEOs get richer. Now at the same time, I'm 100% ok with MCD kiosks taking some of the lazy worker's jobs while the go-getters keep their jobs.

The problem with min wage jobs is the turnover rate is so high. So you pay someone to train them for a few days and the next week you have to train someone else

And I get what your saying about hiring more skilled workers but that's not the problem. The problem is with the 1000 unskilled workers that won't be working anymore since their limited intellectual capacity only allows them to earn an employer $10 per hour in productivity. They essentially will be forever unemployed. Whereas if the gov't didn't stick their nose into the free marketplace, they would be happily employed.

There is not one place in America where someone can work a full time minimum wage job and afford a 2 bedroom apartment. Anyone who is ok with someone working all day and not making enough money to survive is morally bankrupt.

If history has taught us anything at all, it's that socialists know how to run an economy.

Sigh...
Increasing minimum wage is a great idea. It puts more money into the hands of people that really need it, and it improves the economy. People with more money buy more things, and BUY MORE PORN TOO.

Raising minimum wage takes people off welfare, lowering government debts. It will mean more raised in taxes, lowering government debts. Companies like Walmart, hotels, fast food etc. Will have to pay better wages or go out of business and allow other companies to fill the gap. Very few of the minimum wage payers are in industries that will disappear completely. |

It will increase the rate at which companies automate exponentially. Those McDonalds kiosks will be everywhere in no time. Companies won't fire people, they will simply look for ways to speed up the process and in turn eliminate those jobs.

The problem is, many of those ultra white countries don't have a large minority population getting gov't assistance at the tune of 100s of billions a year. Keep importing all those illegals and refugees and there will be a tipping point eventually. When all the lazy non-working people start out numbering the working people, that's when shit collapses.

In the alt rights eyes it's ok for a company to get big tax breaks and other subsidies while paying such a shitty wage that their employees have to get government help. Food Stamps etc
They love their elitist masters!

Bernie is an entitled brat who has never done a real job nor has he ever created one. He doesn’t know how to run a business and his ideas would stifle small business owners. Raise wage by 100%? Guess what, thousands would lose their jobs as businesses would just use less unskilled workers.
He is the one complaining about companies leaving and going overseas, guess what? Raising wages would only lead to more companies leaving. He’s a fucking idiot who thinks that the gov should tax top 2% up to 90%. |

What's funny is you confuse my calling you out on your daily racist rants as hating white people. I'm probably whiter than you and if you think every white person out there is a racist bigot like you then you probably should move out of that southern trailer park and stop spending so much time on stormfront and get a taste of the real world. And did it ever occur to your limited thought process that if people actually were able to earn a living wage and if we had universal health care not so many people would have to depend on govt programs? Why are you ok subsidizing Walmart employees while they are the richest family in America? |

41.6 percent of blacks and 36.4 percent of hispanics are on gov't assistance {source} Now with the ever increasing hispanic and black population and the decreasing white population, what's going to happen when the whites who are 87.8% {source} NOT on welfare, who basically prop the whole thing up, are out numbered 2 to 1? This county is doomed.

High minimum wage incentives companies to eliminate workers. Also there is cases where people work at conventions and stuff who would do it for free but can't. Minimum wage isn't designed as a permanent living wage. It's for students. High minimum wage would also disincentive people to get a college degree or other skills.

I should try to find the podcast, they had on an economist who basically said that increasing the minimum wage would have a short term burst on the economy for ~10-20 years at best but would cause massive job loss for the very reason that companies would move even quicker to automation in order to cut down on unskilled labor positions.

From my travels, I'd say Belgium's major migrant issues are with gypsies and other white trash eastern European scum. You sit in a café in Belgium and within 30 seconds there's always a gypsy teen mother there, kid sucking on tit and hand out begging.
.. come to think of it France is exactly the same. |
