A question for liberals: Washington State MW=$11 an hour, Texas MW=$7.25 an hour ..

[NYcarbineer]

5. Texas

• Percentage of the state’s of hourly workers who earn at or below minimum wage: 6.4%
• Number of hourly workers in this state who earn at or below minimum wage: 400,000
• Number of hourly workers in the state who are paid exactly minimum wage: 223,000
• Percentage distribution: An astonishing 12.1% of U.S. workers earning minimum wage or less live in Texas

• 
  10 States With the Most Minimum Wage Workers

 

[Moonglow]

So why the fuck does both places pay warehouse workers $12 bucks an hour?


I thought it was supposed to be more in a pro union state high minimum wage state?

It appears that a Right to work state low minimum wage state like Texas employers are less greedy by paying $4.75 more then minimum wage, while in Washington State they only pay $1 dollar more then minimum wage...


I thought according to liberals a rising tide rises all boats?

I read your mind dofus...



.

The rich in Washington State can literally, pass through the eye of a Space Needle; Texans, can't.

Can you comprehend my OP?

The company in Texas is paying $4.75 more an hour then Minimum wage, the company in Washington State is only paying $1 dollar more then minimum wage


Do you even know how to balance a check book?



.

Quality of life. Washington State has a Space Needle, Texas doesn't.

Local taxes pay for local infrastructure.

Who cares about the stupid Space Needle when you have the best bar in the United States...

When you consider the cost of living those Seattle warehouse workers are getting screwed.

But but liberals will say the quality of life is better...


What warehouse worker in their right mind living in Texas making $12 bucks an hour and living in a $500 dollar a month apartment would move to Seattle to make $12 bucks an hour and live in $1,500 dollar a month apartment?



Oh so he could have a better quality of life..



LMFAO...




.

There is a better selection of seafood in Seattle..for one, and secondly, there would be no Texicans in Seattle, and that makes it worthwhile..

Better selection of seafood?
The Gulf Coast has a shitload of seafood.

The best economies, according to the nationwide survey, are found largely in coastal and technology-driven states, with heavy representation in the West. California, Nevada, Utah Colorado and Washington are found on the list of top 10 economies. Among Northwest states, Oregon is No. 13, just ahead of No. 10 New York. Idaho is No. 11.--http://blog.seattlepi.com/seattlepolitics/2016/01/14/business-insider-washingtons-economy-ranks-no-1-in-the-nation/

Washington State also has a State income tax, Texas doesn't.

Actually, no we don't. Oregon does though. As far as that goes, we only pay Federal Income Tax.

We also have a high sales tax rate. They recently increased it too. Depending on locale, can be anywhere from 9 to 10.4% in the Puget Sound area

After paying rent and taxes in Seattle making $12 bucks an hour you would be lucky to be able to buy the fish sandwich off of the dollar menu at McDonald's... And let's see... You can get that also in Texas...

Here's the difference:

Restaurant McDonald's Crew Member job - McDonald's - Galveston, TX

Texas job at McDonalds 7.75 an hour.

No such low paying job in WA, at least not legally.

Still fail, ( I thought Texas was still $7.25?) again the cost of living in Texas is way lower... I nnow think it's just liberals diabolical plan to raise the minimum wage nationaly to collect more taxes.

(BTW NY I give you an A for effort)

He just DESTROYED your single anecdote with a comprehensive analysis of employment in the entire state and its relationship to minimum wage. It was one of the more violent rapings of an OP I've ever seen.

You've been murdered here. A smart man would go away. That's why I have no doubt you'll keep replying like the mouthbreathing rube you are.
