Democrat motive for $15 minimum wage?

[francoHFW]

Everyone should know that this will reduce the number of entry level/low skill jobs, so what is the Democrat motive for a $15/hr minimum wage?

The answer is that this is exactly the result they want: Fewer people working and more people dependent on government programs.

Guess how they will vote?

$15 is not enough I say $20.

Heck, lets make it $50. A 16 year old making snow cone can bring home 90k/yr. Seems like a great idea. What could possibly go wrong. According to what I have read in this thread, corporations could pay it and it wouldn't negatively affect anything.

Shut the f up, brainwashed functional moron. In Australia it is $19. How horrible that would be right fool?

Answer is simple

Minimum wage has not been raised in ten years. $15 will just begin to recoup lost spending power

It's been more than 10 years. The last time the congress allowed an increase in the minimum wage was in the bush boy years.

 

[Maxdeath]

I worked for minimum once-the rest of the time I got raises on merit-the lazy did not.

I worked minimum wage while I was in college in the early 70s
Made $2.10 an hour

For that $2.10 an hour, I was able to pay for my $650 a year tuition just working three months over the summer.

At today’s $7.25, it would take six months work to pay that tuition

I applaud your work ethic. If you take a job that pays minimum, then you plan the raises you think you should get or get another job. Or go to school like you did.

It is difficult for someone working only a few months a year to negotiate a higher wage. I could pay for a year of college working minimum wage, todays students can’t.

What if a minimum wage worker wants to save for a car?
When I made $2.10 an hour, it would have taken me six months to save up to buy a brand new car (around $2,000)

Today it would take a minimum wage worker over a year.

Buy gas for that car?
For $2.10 I could buy 7 gallons of gas in the early 70s
For $7.25 today you only get 2 1/2 gallons

It would take a $15 minimum wage just to have the buying power I had at $2.10 in the 70s

I would love to keep ignoring you but when you really have no idea what you are saying it is just to hard not to.
Let's look at your claim is f college. So your idea is to artificially increase the costs the college pays out so they will be required to charge more for a degree. That is smart there yeah real smart.

When you were saving for a car there were probably no seat belts, airbags, Bluetooth, no intermittent wipers, no backup cameras, no built in navigation and I could keep going on. Each of those things adds to the cost. IF you could get a car that had just the basics you could probably pay for it in less then six months. Problem is they are not available.

Most of the easy to get oil is gone there is still easy to retrieve oil in the Middle East but that requires shipping which means refining, which means higher costs. Oil that requires deeper drilling, fracking, more material to reach means higher costs. This oil still needs refined adding to the cost. It still needs to be transported to the refinery and the refined product transported for sale, more costs. I could go on.

In the seventies there were no cellphones, no iPads, no iPods, not a lot of bottled water was being sold, most still ate at home and went out to eat as a treat. The world and what is considered normal changes.
Adding more costs to everything to give someone a higher wage that buys nothing extra will not make it better.

So, minimum wage has not kept up with rising costs of college or the price of gas or cars

How about taking your girlfriend out to the movies?
In 1970, I could use that $2.10 an hour wage and buy two tickets and popcorn for $2.25

Today, that $7.25 worker would pay $24 for those two tickets and popcorn

You really are ignorant. I already pointed out why cars and fuel are more expensive. A good part of those expenses is labor costs.

As for a movie and popcorn. Do you really think that a movie costs the same to produce as it did in 1970? Come on. Special effects alone have raised prices. Add in dollar per hour help, catering, motel rooms for location, transportation prices, even the wages for a star or two. Now add in the increase in shipping the film from location to location. Prices of utilities for the theater. Personell prices, taxes on the property, both state and federal income tax. I could go on. But your answer is to artificially inflate wages which will artificially inflate the price of a car, gas, a movie and popcorn. So let's use your $24.00 for tickets and popcorn. The price might be $32.00 for those same tickets and popcorn.

Now do that for gas, lights, heat, phone, food and everything else. How much have you gained?

You want to have a minimum wage fine let a state set it.

That has got to be one of the most ridiculous posts and logic I've seen from you far right radical extremists.
There will always be entry level jobs. Just because an employer has to pay a living wage doesn't mean there will no longer be the need for entry level positions. Where do you get this garbage anyway?...

"Right radical extremist" being anyone to the left of Karl Marx to you leftarded radicals but we digress.

Have you ever used self-checkout? Automated customer service?

Employers will indeed eliminate $15/hr jobs that aren't worth $15/hr and robotics - which are inevitable anyway - will arrive that much sooner. Your ignorance and sanctimony will not save those who will make nothing because the manual jobs go to robots.

And your last line says it all. The left in the US know that only bigger, greasier, more corrupt central gov't control of our lives - creeping socialism - will result in the Kumbaya "Worker's Paradise" they are certain will work if only it is given 1 more chance.

Even the few socialists who understand economics and the even fewer who can consider even the most likely results of the silliness they promote won't admit publicly that socialism cannot work.

Domestic issues are indeed the biz of individual states and it's up to the voters to elect leadership that represents their interests and values. One size definitely doesn't fit all and what works for Oregon may not for Ohio.

$15 an hour will make LESS people dependent on Government support

So naive and ignorant. This is not how it works. Remember how Democrats have said that raising taxes(tarriffs) on corporations is just a tax on the consumer? Well, corporations do pass along their expenses and that includes to a VERY large extent, their payroll. Many times, these companies will automate because the long term cost of the payroll surpasses the cost of automation. These un-skilled folks with then be out of a job entirely. For those who keep their jobs, they will be paying more for the products they buy and their net gain is minimal if at all.

Keep in mind, many of these low-skilled jobs are taken by teenagers to earn extra money. Sorry, but $15/hr mandatory wage (31k/yr) for a McDonald's drive-thru worker or an ice cream scooper in most states is ridiculous. These jobs require very little skill if any. If you want to make 31k, learn a skill.

and of course Republicans will make that as expensive and difficult as possible in order to save the greedy idiot GOP Rich from paying their fair share....

But then the truth is this admin is working to make non-4 yr training and apprenticeships more available and more affordable.

So why is it you never know the facts but are always quick to sell your class warfare, Comrade Franco?

Commie much?

When any of your dreams actually happens then will talk. The GOP has never done anything 4 the non Rich except when finally forced to....talking about Communists makes you an obvious brainwashed functional moron. There aren't any.

It's the standard fools play the demodummies employ to buy votes from people too stupid or too lazy to get themselves ahead. Of course it never works and either puts them out of work altogether or further behind as price increases following on the heels of the rising minimum wages soon devowers the increase. Of course they're too stupid to have ever figured that far ahead. Part of the reason Democrats just keep getting dumber and stupider as time marches on and why that party is dying off.

It is difficult for someone working only a few months a year to negotiate a higher wage. I could pay for a year of college working minimum wage, todays students can’t.

What if a minimum wage worker wants to save for a car?
When I made $2.10 an hour, it would have taken me six months to save up to buy a brand new car (around $2,000)

When you were saving for a car there were probably no seat belts, airbags, Bluetooth, no intermittent wipers, no backup cameras, no built in navigation and I could keep going on. Each of those things adds to the cost. IF you could get a car that had just the basics you could probably pay for it in less then six months. Problem is they are not available.

Most of the easy to get oil is gone there is still easy to retrieve oil in the Middle East but that requires shipping which means refining, which means higher costs.

It still needs to be transported to the refinery and the refined product transported for sale, more costs. I could go on.

Prices of utilities for the theater. Personell prices, taxes on the property, both state and federal income tax. I could go on. But your answer is to artificially inflate wages which will artificially inflate the price of a car, gas, a movie and popcorn. So let's use your $24.00 for tickets and popcorn.

But then the truth is this admin is working to make non-4 yr training and apprenticeships more available and more affordable. So why is it you never know the facts but are always quick to sell your class warfare, Comrade Franco?
Commie much?

When any of your dreams actually happens then will talk. The GOP has never done anything 4 the non Rich except when finally forced to....talking about Communists makes you an obvious brainwashed functional moron. There aren't any...

Another lame defection, Comrade Franco, which you follow with another of your commie LIES because the truth just doesn't work for you. Imagine being the sad-sack Democrat Socialist who will have to run against the truth that you just can't handle:

Job Growth Underscores Economy’s Vigor; Unemployment at Half-Century Low

A nicely and sustainably expanding economy (which has raised all ships) with low inflation.

Historically low unemployment (especially amongst our minorities) with rising wages and disposable income.

A strong dollar and investment markets.

A righting of what had been a listing (left) USSC.

Repeated exposure of our self-serving swamp and the nefarious players within it, including but not limited to our MSM/DNC and high-ranking mutts at both our DOJ & FBI.

No wonder you bitter, bitter leftards are so hysterical. Anything good for America and Americans you consider to be bad.


Thank you Mr Prez and MAGA, baby!!

And inequality and upward mobility and the middle class and the working-class just get worse and worse. we need to change our tax system after 35 years of GOP give away to the rich.

Then vote for Schultz.

Think how cheap stuff would be if employers didn’t have to pay the help at all.

It would be Conservatopia at its finest.
