And that is a good thing? More people on assistance because they are unable to find work even if they are capable? This is supposed to improve things how?
More people are on assistance right now who have a shitty paying job. Where's your complaining about that?
Peeps who actually care about those on the bottom rung seem to feel it is better to be working and getting help than not working at all. You "compassionate" libs seem eager to get them out of work all together. What's up wit dat?
And your solution is to make that worse by taking the job from them and having them totally dependent. Nice.
No I want them to higher wages to get off the govt dole. You are fighting to keep them working for shit wages and staying on the govt dole. If you are against raising the min wage there is no denying that you are ok with a record number of ppl on welfare because that is the result of your support.
Save the pie in the sky non solution constant whining. You want to keep low wages AND cry about people on assistance?hahaha
If you really want to trim the federal assistance rolls - something that would hurt Dems - simply lower the bar at which it is provided. Allow the states to determine and pay for that assistance. Problem solved.
How do you give someone higher wages by kicking them out of work? You want people to be dependent on the gov't with no way out. You dont mandate prosperity by passing laws. If that were the case the Soviet Union would be an economic powerhouse.More people are on assistance right now who have a shitty paying job. Where's your complaining about that?

Luckily because of the heartless scabs they can get unemployment until they find a higher paying job with increased min wage.
I love this, I hope you guys run on Fighting for Low wages. I think its a real winner.
I'm not fighting for lower wages but rather a wage scale that doesn't destroy jobs in this precariously fragile economic recovery and you heartless scabs aren't creating jobs at all.
This recovery is not fragile like Bush's. Employment rate of the working age population is growing at a faster rate than it ever did under Bush's best years. Also prices are not spiraling out of control as they did with Bush.

Another idiot.
Thsi recovery is the worst on record. The Employment rate is the worst since the 1970s. Inflation is beginning to heat up to levels not seen since the 1970s. Prices did not spiral out of control under Bush. Gas prices are higher now than for longer than under Bush.

Congressional Budget Office: Wage hike would lift pay but cost jobs | Fox News
OOPS!....The CBO went off the reservation with this one.
Expect there to be pressure from the White House brought to bear.
Oh.....Since you lefty moonbats will jump all over the news reporting agency, here's the same story from a Lib source.

You libs may now begin the spin cycle.

So your solutions is fight for lower wages and make it harder for people to get assistance from those low paying jobs?
Sounds like a winner. Some of that ol Compassionate Conservatism in action
Once fully implemented in the second half of 2016, the $10.10 option would reduce total employment by about 500,000 workers, or 0.3 percent, CBO projects.
Many more low-wage workers would see an increase in their earnings. Of those workers who will earn up to $10.10 under current law, most--about 16.5 million, according to CBO's estimates--would have higher earnings during an average week in the second half of 2016 if the $10.10 option was implemented.
Some of the people earning slightly more than $10.10 would also have higher earnings under that option, for reasons discussed below. Further, a few higher-wage workers would owe their jobs and increased earnings to the heightened demand for goods and services that would result from the minimum-wage increase.
What the CBO really said was, on the effect on jobs of raising the minimum wage:
Very slight decrease to -1.0 million workers
I think that frankly is the CBO's way of saying they don't know.

The $9.00 option would reduce employment by about 100,000 workers, or by less than 0.1 percent, CBO projects.
Roughly 7.6 million workers who will earn up to $9.00 per hour under current law would have higher earnings during an average week in the second half of 2016 if this option was implemented, CBO estimates, and some people earning more than $9.00 would have higher earnings as well.
Increasing minimum wage increases jobs & lowers unemployment rates. Seattle has the highest minimum wage in the country at $15/hr, yet their unemployment rate is only 4.4% which is lower than their surrounding cities & states & lower than the state of Texas that has low wages & the benefits of an oil boom.
Businesses employing more than 500 workers would be required to pay $15 an hour by 2017, or 2018 if health care is offered. Smaller businesses would have five to seven years to phase in the increase. Part of employees' tips and benefits could be applied toward the higher minimum for as long as 11 years.

I'm glad you didnt try to rebut the fact that your support creates the welfare rolls that you cry about. Cant have it both way buddy
The CBO report also examines the effect of increasing the minimum wage to $9.00.

Giving people jobs creates welfare rolls? What planet are you from again?

More questions than answers. Keep up the perpetual dumb act. It fits you
The downside from the CBO report:
Once fully implemented in the second half of 2016, the $10.10 option would reduce total employment by about 500,000 workers, or 0.3 percent, CBO projects.
The upside:
Many more low-wage workers would see an increase in their earnings. Of those workers who will earn up to $10.10 under current law, most--about 16.5 million, according to CBO's estimates--would have higher earnings during an average week in the second half of 2016 if the $10.10 option was implemented.
.5 million lost jobs, 16.5 million improved jobs.
But wait! There's more!
Some of the people earning slightly more than $10.10 would also have higher earnings under that option, for reasons discussed below. Further, a few higher-wage workers would owe their jobs and increased earnings to the heightened demand for goods and services that would result from the minimum-wage increase.

they ignore this and instead opt to cry over all the low pay jobs. Again raising the CEO pay is no problem, raising the workers pay = Job Killer
