Over reliance on a minimum wage is bad. “Competitive pay” becomes $0.25 more per hour. Joke money. Also, businesses, if you offer the minimum don’t expect Doogie Howser brains and Gokus commitment and integrity.

Also remember bums and crackheads will do random work for cheaper and using the most desperate of society as a budget standard isn’t exactly smart. Know what’s even cheaper? Slaves. Feed them, house them, own them. Why even pay?

That’s why a minimum wage is healthy. Depends on the locations population, income, etc. Businesses are getting far too top heavy and that is a shitty reality. Nepotism is rife. Virtue signaling nonsense jobs eating away from those who actually contribute. It’s a mess.

Probbbbbably shouldn’t be aiming to pay less. Poor people can’t buy your shit.

They do work though.


This social experiment doesn't have a control. Are Belgium and Luxembourg good places to live because of social programs? Or is it because they have social cohesion and an intelligent population with a low crime rate?

If America had those same programs, we would still have the same poverty rate. Our poverty rate now is the same as it was in the 50’s even after trillions in spending.

America is an oligarchy with zero interest in pulling the people out of poverty, apples and oranges.

Our poverty rate was way better and then Republicans started cutting social programs.

It's the policy stupid.

There should be no minimum wage. None.



I agree. No minimum wage and workers should be able to negotiate their wages with guns.

They will come for me well before they come for you.
But they will come for you never the less.
