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

[BlindBoo]

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?

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?

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?

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..

Houston has a excellent selection of Seafood Houses and real Mexican food.

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

Not cold water varieties..

Seattle doesnt have the warm water varieties.

Do ya'll have Chinook Salmon? Steelhead??? Now that's some good eatin'......if you can afford it.

Dang now I am hungry for some fish, Fratz around here has some pretty good salmon that and a ice cold beer sounds good right about now.

You have not lived until you've had Native American style Alder smoked Salmon over an open fire pit......Something like this.....

Now you know why we have such a large homeless population

Actually, red states own almost all of the top-10 in terms of homeless population.

10 Most Homeless States in America

Perhaps, IDK....but there was a thread here last year about the homeless crisis in Seattle and how the Mayor was pleading for outside help

Your OP is idiocy. You start out talking about minimum wage, and the next thing you know you're comparing jobs that aren't minimum wage.

lol, why don't you tell us the difference between physicians' salaries in WA and TX, and then relate that to minimum wage.

 

[Hum Dinger]

The answer is simple:

In Washington, warehouse workers are considered to be minimally educated with no significant jobs skills.

In Texas, warehouse workers are considered to be the intellectual elite.

Very funny who the heck would compare minimum wage jobs, you know I am talking the following

1. Wages above the states minimum wage

2. RTW Vs Union states

3. Liberals talking point of raising the national minimum wage raises wages/wealth for all

LMFAO...

Except that the ad was for TACOMA WASHINGTON.

Rents in Tacoma are around $500 - $600, same as Texas, and they have Obamacare, which Texas doesn't. It's largely white which you lot seem to think is important, and it's not full of Texans, which in my book is a HUGE bonus.

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

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

My mistake, TX max sales tax is 8.25%, in unincorporated areas it's usually 6.25%.
