Immaturely railing against libertarians and economists because some of them said something that was outside of your leftist bubble worldview just reflects poorly on yourself.

Save yourself the time and mental anguish and just admit you have no understanding of the topic and no real arguments and have no interest in making one anyways. At least that would be honest.

Nah im gunna keep living here in the real world while you regurgitate mises like he has any basis in reality.
Its fringe nonsense that appeals to corporate boot lickers, but its just pure nonsense.

Again, you have no argument. pretending you are living in the real world by being willfully ignorant, insulting, and dismissive does not make you correct.
Pretending reasoned arguments and statements of fact are 'pure nonsense' is also not an argument.

That is embarrassing and childish behavior.

I don't want to know what cost of living will be if that's what everyone starts at

Crazy how they feed you this and you believe it, while the rest of the civilized world has proven for decades that this isn't a problem.

The rest of the so-called 'civilized world' does not have a 24 USD minimum wage, nor have they proven its not a problem.

I agree with the first part of your post, but I'd love to see where that second statement is coming from.

Minimum wage in China is less than a dollar/hour
In India it might be as low as 2 dollars/day

Wow.

Minmum wage staying low to keep multinational corps interested.
They make the highest donations to parties, so gotta keep them happy.

That is until automation. Then let the vegan hunger games begin!

Aggregated Data Hides the Damage Done by Minimum Wage Hikes

https://mises.org/wire/aggregated-data-hides-damage-done-minimum-wage-hikes

maybe you got other sources since this mise.org is now considered as a far alt-right think tank lead by a nazi ?
"damage done by minimum wage" is already showing us the... color
what if it's only 15$ instead of 24$ ? any idea to protect small business and independant start-ups? what about more welfare services instead of pure money ?
i know you will avoid, but please try to developp on a common ground
