More lefties learn the glory of the 15 dollar minimum wage....unemployment.....

[HereWeGoAgain]

I'm less worried about economy wide inflation than I am in reduced employment of low skilled workers.
If you increase wages beyond what the worker can produce, increased sales won't matter. You'll just incentivize automation.

Well clearly that has never happened. Worrying doesn't make it true.

Never happened, great! Raise it to $50 an hour.

Your posts get more and more childish. Guess I win.

Spouting the same shit over and over again doesnt make you the winner.
I think we can all agree giving em another buck wont fuck things up,but anymore than that and you're going to create a domino effect.

It means you guys are slow learners. Sad that I have to post the facts so many times.

Talk about your slow learners. You're a one trick pony without the ability to see deeper into the consequences of doubling the min wage.

Actually that is you. You see increased labor costs and that is it. You don't understand everything that happens.

So you do think fifty bucks an hour for a burger flipper is a fair wage.
I hate to break it to you but you're just going to have to apply yourself and give up the dream of being a lifelong fry cook and driving a BMW.

I didn't suggest that. But it's noted you are resorting to insults rather than facts.

Well you would have to bring up facts or prove me wrong. Seems you can't do either.

Progressives only support minimum wage policies because it promotes trickle up poverty economics = marching to a socialist state. End of discussion. Anybody who truly supports minimum wage because it provides a few extra bucks for people is just a simpleton.

 

[LogikAndReazon]

Its an empty argument....

Any increase in labor will not be a absorbed by the company. Hours will be cut, a job will be lost, prices will rise. Any combination youd prefer.

One third of minimum wage earners are overpaid, another third underpaid...

And no min wage increase has ever lifted anyone out of poverty. Poverty rates have remained the same, as 60% of those in poverty dont work....

Its an empty gesture to the dim witted for their votes.....

Funny those things haven't happened with the many min wage increases of the past.

Graphs and charts don't illustrate how many people businesses chose not to hire, or how many employees had marginal hours cut due to increased costs, or how much spending companies chose not to do because of the business environment.

Static analysis only tells part of the story. Dynamic analysis tells the rest.

Unfortunately, many who have no understanding of business psychology don't understand that.

This is not an argument against minimum wages or minimum wage increases. It is, however, an argument for only putting so much stock in the opinions of those who don't know much about actually running a business.

Libs don't do dynamic analysis. Strictly stage one thinking......or feelings.

Seattle Minimum Wage Kills Jobs Hurts Students PJ Tatler

Students at the University of Washington in Tacoma are getting an object lesson in the value of a dollar. As economic dominoes fall in the wake of a municipal minimum wage hike to $15 per hour in Seattle, university students find themselves digging deeper into their pockets to cover higher prices resulting from the mandate.




Elsewhere, small-business employees initially thrilled by the “raise” granted them by the city have since learned that they’ll be losing their jobs later this year. Red Alert Politics reports:


[Z Pizza] owner Ritu Shah Burnham said she just can’t afford the city’s mandated wage hikes.


“I’ve let one person go since April 1, I’ve cut hours since April 1, I’ve taken them myself because I don’t pay myself,” she told Q13. “I’ve also raised my prices a little bit, there’s no other way to do it.”

What's your alternative? Slave wages with no benefits?

Why is it always all or nothing with you?

If I've told you once, I've told you a billion times: Don't exaggerate.

You could confiscate every dollar the rich posses and it wouldnt make a damn bit of difference.

I must disagree.

It would make a HUGE difference. Countless businesses would close and tens of thousands would become unemployed.

Beware the law of unintended consequences, lefties.

If it werent for unintended consequences liberals wouldnt achieve anything.

Conservative achievement? Unless you are talking about tearing things down, that's an oxymoron. On the other hand, if we are talking achievement with meaning, liberals achieve everything.

"In a comprehensive, 182-page summary of the research on this subject from the last two decades, economists David Neumark (UC-Irvine) and William Wascher (Federal Reserve Board) determined that 85 percent of the best research points to a loss of jobs following a minimum wage increase."

Benefits are inducements to hire and retain the best labor force possible. Minimum wage employees will get benefits and/or wage increases if and when they deserve them.
Telling a business owner which employees are worth more to his business makes no sense

Typical of you, Dweeb.

Myth: Increasing the minimum wage will cause people to lose their jobs.

Not true: A review of 64 studies on minimum wage increases found no discernable effect on employment. Additionally, more than 600 economists, seven of them Nobel Prize winners in economics, have signed onto a letter in support of raising the minimum wage to $10.10 by 2016.
