Fifteen bucks for an hour of someone’s life?
Seems pretty cheap to me.
Well keep that thought as this image will replace that teenager who is getting more than just a paycheck working at that minimum wage job.

But of course those favoring the $15/hr nationally are also truly ignorant believing one size fits all.
It may not be reasonable for everyone but it is hard not to hope for those to get at least 15 dollars
Amazon and Disney has minimum wage to 15 dollars
If McDonald's can afford to give its shareholders $7.7 billion, it can afford to pay all its workers $15 an hour."
Hard to argue that point
According to one study, U.S. taxpayers are subsidizing the low pay at McDonald's to the tune of $1.2 billion a year.
hard to argue that point
In-And-Out starts at 13 dollars
people
Target says that it will go to 13 dollars
Costco 14 dollars
Walmart and CVS 11 dollars
People need the money and it will allow them to give their kids more opportunities to succeed if they can manage their money
If the lower wage states do not keep up with the high end states then so be it.
There are consequences as young people will leave
But then again older people who have had some success and ready to move on will move back
Okay, a couple of things.
It's easy to argue with "If McDonald's can afford to give its shareholders $7.7 billion, it can afford to pay all its workers $15 an hour." You know how? McDonald's isn't paying those workers; the small business owner franchisee running THAT PARTICULAR RESTAURANT is paying them. McDonald's, the large corporation with the shareholders to which the dividends are paid, doesn't actually make and sell burgers, you know. It makes its money off of selling franchises and collecting rents and fees from the franchisees. So you're conflating two completely different sets of people there.
And artificially inflating the minimum wage doesn't give anyone "more opportunities", unless you consider collecting welfare because all the jobs dried up as small businesses closed to be an "opportunity".
Plus ignorant of business people don't seem to realize that raising to $15.00 means actually in one year for McDonald's 218,000 employees McDonalds' franchise owners
will pay nearly another $500 million in payroll taxes...i.e. 6.2% of $15.00 x 40 x 218,000 x 52 weeks.
McDonalds had no problem paying their workers the equivalent of $12.00 dollars an hour in 1968 when you adjust for inflation. Sales and profits were GREAT for McDonalds in 1968. THE BIG MAC was introduced to the McDonalds menu in 1968!
MAKE MCDONALDS GREAT AGAIN! Make sure their workers are at least making what they did in 1968, which was $12 DOLLARS and hour when adjusted for inflation!

I swear, if your complete and utter bullshit makes me roll my eyes any farther, I'm going to be staring at my own brain.
You talk like someone who's never done anything for longer than two weeks besides reading blogs about how put-upon you are by people who expect you to work for money.
Fifteen dollars an hour is not a lot of money even by Mississippi terms.
Why do I suspect you've never spent any time in Mississippi?
Long overdueBut of course those favoring the $15/hr nationally are also truly ignorant believing one size fits all.
Well, that is what the minimum wage is. The minimum wage is currently $7.25 an hour. It needs to be raised to at least $12 dollars an hour even in low cost living places like Mississippi and Tennessee.

$15 dollars might be a little high in places like Mississippi and Tennessee, but nearly every where else, it would fit like a glove. $12 dollars is not going to hurt anything in Mississippi except for people who are poor managers of business. A minimum wage as a high as $15 dollars might be ok for Mississippi too.

A Heritage Foundation analysis from 2016 estimated that a $15 federal minimum wage would wipe out 7 million jobs. Hardest hit would be workers, businesses, and economies in areas with low costs of living. (like Mississippi where cost of living is 87% of USA standard.
Mississippi cost of living is 87.8% Mississippi Cost of Living
Liberal activists demand a “living wage,” but the truth is that only a tiny handful of hourly wage workers make the minimum wage or less (4 percent), according to the Employment Policies Institute. On the contrary, a whopping 44 percent of hourly workers currently earn at or below the proposed $15 minimum wage.
Now consider what the $15 minimum wage would do.
For a restaurant that employs 10 minimum wage workers, a $15 minimum wage hike would cost them about $170,000 per year. If the restaurant currently earns profit margins of 5 percent, it would have to increase sales by $3.5 million per year, or an extra $67,000 every week.
But that is not realistic. The likely scenario is that they’ll either have to cut working hours or fire some workers altogether. Either way, most people are worse off than before.
Lawmakers Are Pushing a $15 Minimum Wage. Here Are 3 Disastrous Consequences That Would Result.
Robotic waiters...
tRumps corporate tax cut lowered federal taxes paid by corporations by 50%. Why can't the businesses use the tax cuts by raising pay and/or benefits, I did?
You are such an enormous liar. "I did", my ass. Do you really believe anyone is remotely fooled by your "Internet billionaire" act? Maybe you're paying your dog to spend time with you, but that's about it.
It's very telling that you can't rebut anything that I write.

Whether the minimum wage is $7 dollars or $15 dollars won't make any difference in if or when a company introduces a robot or computer to take over someone's job.
With the unemployment rate at 3.6%, the robots are not helping any at this point. Massive labor shortages all over the place!

Name one company that went "out of business" because they paid their employees to much money.
