Hiking the Minimum Wage Doesn’t Help the Poor

[ClosedCaption]

Democrats hate poor people who want to be independent of gov't handouts. So they make it increasingly difficult to get off the dole. They really hate black teenagers, which is why their unemployment rate is about 20%.

But rich white people love govt. handouts.

And most of them are Democrats! Look what you've done here!

And you defend them! Look at what you've done here!

See! Making sure America endures is second to making sure corps make as much as possible and pay the least possible. Fuck people! All they are are our neighbors, famil, co-workers etc.

Why that is a priority is still a mystery.

This is just another shining example of the blatant hypocrisy in the viewpoints of the far right wing. These people don't care about consistency or common sense. Literally all that they care about is complaining about anything and EVERYTHING that Obama/Dems do. It doesn't matter if it makes them hypocrites or if it even forces them to argue against something they previously supported.

This issue is no different.

Raising the minimum wage does not help the poor because any benefit they get is quickly eaten up by inflation partly caused by the rise in the minimum wage.

Do tell us about where you received your degree in economics. I'm fascinated by your worldly views.

That's because you must have had a public school education. If raising the minimum wage would end poverty, then the minimum wage of something over $7.00 an hour would certainly mean that no one was poor, IF the cost of living was the same as it was when the minimum wage was $1.25 an hour. But it isn't the same. Whatever gains were made by raising the minimum wage was lost due to inflation and the rise of the cost of living.

If you need a degree in economics to illustrate the obvious, then a degree in economics won't help you.

Yeah, except that didnt happen all the other times we raised the min wage...but you promise this time will be different. Reality disagrees with you

Raising the minimum wage does help the poor. It gives them more money for working. If you want people to not spooge off of the taxpayer, then give them a good reason for seeking work.

Please post where you've taken them to task like the poor you always complain about. Otherwise STFU

If inflation didn't eat the benefits of previous raises of the minimum wage,then why did it need to be repeatedly raised?

LOL, I'd love to hear how you came up with that $7/hour number. You're literally fucking insane.

You've illustrated the obvious alright.

We had a black person as a leader of my high school. You wouldn't be interested.

It's about helping the working poor make it to the next ladder.

OK, so you can't post a single instance. Now apologize and shut your pie hole, liar.

It only gives some people more money. Others get less because those jobs won't exist at all.
I realize that's probably too abstract for you to comprehend.

Here's an article that ironically in arguing against the proposition actually proves it.
