That was a rather immature response.that is just Your codependent insecurity, right winger. we still subscribe to capitalism.Would you want to be forced to move somewhere?I am saying we could build new cities with modern infrastructure, built in.Can you elaborate?to improve resource management.There are a multitude of areas in the US devoid of wealthy people.
Why would anyone with money build a city in the middle of a wasteland of upward mobility?
Are you talking water, electricity, gas?
Are you asking government to force businesses to upgrade less desirable communities across the land?
The private sector would just need to move in.
I don’t know nearly enough about Civil Engineering to discuss such legislation.
What about eminent domain for people near toxic waste sites? We could build a new city and move them in with eminent domain.
You are right. I think we need to do more than that.we really just need a fifteen dollar an hour minimum wage, unemployment compensation for being unemployed on an at-will basis in our at-will employment States, and giga-recycling factories to help with social costs.It stumps me, this pro Mexican Illegal alien agenda. Where the hell did it come from? No other group gets this degree of special treatment. What the hell makes Mexican illegals immune from international immigration laws? I know Mexicans, and most of them are just exploiting the flawed immigration system. Because they can, for no other reason. They want a better life...(Tell me, WHO DOESN'T?) They may be refugees from a slowly imploding country, yes. But as far as I am concerned, it isn't an excuse to flaunt international immigration laws. Most of them aren't targets of death squads or starving. So all this sympathy and compassion for Mexican illegals seems misplaced, as far as I can tell. I have been known to overlook stuff.
new cities are more cost effective. if you are familiar with the concept of planned communities; the concept of planned cities, could be easier to understand.That was a rather immature response.that is just Your codependent insecurity, right winger. we still subscribe to capitalism.Would you want to be forced to move somewhere?I am saying we could build new cities with modern infrastructure, built in.Can you elaborate?to improve resource management.

Eminent Domain is usually used by business, not by advocacy groups.
Tax professionals too much and you get neo-Cons.
Or we can become more of a Totalitarian nation.
I am fully in favor of legislating clean up technology before allowing pollution to be produced.
I'm sorry that you don't see the difference between an entry level job for young kids....and now the job for adults that must sustain living. You are certainly welcome to work for less than $15 an hour in California and survive.They never gave two shits about minimum wage when only 15-18 year old AMERICAN teenagers worked those jobs.
we really just need a fifteen dollar an hour minimum wage, unemployment compensation for being unemployed on an at-will basis in our at-will employment States, and giga-recycling factories to help with social costs.
How does it do that? Explain the economic process, right wingers.we really just need a fifteen dollar an hour minimum wage, unemployment compensation for being unemployed on an at-will basis in our at-will employment States, and giga-recycling factories to help with social costs.
And once again it doesn't do anything , it's trickle up poor and destroys the middle class .

I have a million times, once again just for you 3% of Americans make minimum wage, 50% make $15 or less, you raise up minimum wage to $15 .. well then 53% of Americans will now make minimum wage , the bottom of the lader.
It doesn't raise all boats , it's trickle up poor
Minimum wages are rising. Pay for experienced retail workers is not. | Business | stltoday.com
James Collins has been working at Walmart for six years. His pay: $11 an hour, the same as what a new hire would make on their first day of work.
Collins, a 65-year-old maintenance worker at a Dallas store, joined the company when the starting hourly wage was $8. Over the years, Walmart has steadily raised that rate, in part to attract workers in a tightening labor market. But data shows that pay for longer-term workers like Collins has remained stubbornly stagnant.
“There’s no appreciation for experience anymore,” Collins said. “Someone could walk off the street today and get paid the same as me.”
Retailers have made headlines for raising their minimum hourly wages in quick succession — CVS to $11, Costco to $13, Target to $15 by 2020 — while 29 states and the District of Columbia now require that employers pay more than the federal minimum wage of $7.25 per hour. But economists say those gains have not translated to higher wages among midlevel workers.
The average hourly wage paid to retail workers dropped to $18.58 in June, from $18.65 a month earlier, according to data from the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics. (Year over year, the average hourly retail wage has risen 2 percent, from $18.15.)
“Poor wage growth has persisted even as we’ve hit 4 percent unemployment, and that’s particularly true for workers in the middle,” said Josh Bivens, director of research at the Economic Policy Institute, a progressive think tank.
Almost Half of All American Workers Make Less Than $15 an Hour

I am in the Eureka State; coming up with solutions instead of excuses, is being full of Faith.
How do you explain Seattle or San Francisco?
You know, if the minimum wage was increased to 15/hr., then many of the people would no longer qualify for welfare programs.
I thought you conservatives were all about figuring out how to reduce spending for welfare programs. Well..................raising the minimum wage to 15/hr is one way to do it.
By "Mexicrats" do you mean California?
21st century Democrats = Mexicrats
Everything they do, every policy they push, every platform they run on...their primary beneficiary must be illegal aliens.
I'm for raising minimum wage.
picture yourself loading heavy boxes in a factory and some schmuck walks by every hour and throws a crumbled up ten dollar bill at you
fyi, in California some people can make 50k per year and still qualify for welfare
fyi in California, most mexicans don't vote at all
fyi the Democrats want to raise minimum wage to 15, sometime in the future over the rainbow.
they just want the votes now
That only happens when management is lousy, and they ask for and get raises, before asking Labor to take pay cuts to "save the company".You know, if the minimum wage was increased to 15/hr., then many of the people would no longer qualify for welfare programs.

You really are as dumb as a box of rocks! The libtards would then just raise the benefit levels to correspond to the new inflated prices. Ever see a dog chase its tail?
Then would we would need to raise the minimum wage again.

Paying them $10 is too much. Unskilled labor like that is not worth that much.
