"I can't speak for everyone, I can only speak for me.
Paying pittance is lots of fun, even if its still slavery. "
A job pays what the market demands.
My neighbor's son is 21 and graduated with an IT degree. He started at 48K a year.
Something about not majoring in Greek mythology which is not in demand in the business place.
Friend of my oldest son went to HVAC vocational school for 18 months and got his certificate. His first year he made $12 a hour for the first 6 months and then $15 a hour.
After he was there for 18 months they put him as a trainee for service calls at $16 a hour. Within 6 months they had him making the service calls. His pay?
1/2, ONE HALF of what he billed out in labor. Most days he makes $200+
24 year old kid making 60K a year doing HVAC.
Ditto for plumbers, auto mechanics and the hundreds of thousands of other skilled jobs that are unfilled in America.
Why?
Because Americans are fucking lazy and want a "living wage" for saying "do you want fries with that" 8 hours a day.

Well I guess the fries at McDonald's will be $7.00 if the minimum wage increases

So... What's your point?
Well I guess the fries at McDonald's will be $7.00 if the minimum wage increases
They are not worth whatever the going rate is now.

You bring up North Dakota and want someone to prove what happened there is exceptional? You have to be kidding. Let's show the obvious that all of America doesn't experience a boom town environment to a mind not capable of looking at anything and actually seeing it!
The problem with you right-wingers is you've turned your greed into a religion. You actually believe a free market without any outside influence will work, in spite of the reality that it never has. You are hell bent on getting us back to the Robber Baron days of sweat shops and third world standards, locking women away to work in the garment industry by chaining the doors and then claiming no liability when a fire kills them or they fall to their death from many stories above to escape the flames. It's all about your right to make your money and fuck everybody else in the world, while you are doing it. You just can't understand why not allowing you to dig up gold ore from the earth and destroying a fishing industry worth hundreds of times your economic size doesn't make sense. You say: Fuck all those people making their living and their industry, because it isn't you, right! Fuck being sociable, because the word is too close to socialism in a dictionary! The world, the universe only has one trinity, me, myself and I.
It's a mystery to me how you worshipers of the BEAST managed to get Christians to support you or your kind. It's time you met a Christian, like Peter and like Samson, who took the jawbone of an ass and slaughtered thousands of you Philistines, and you are the jawbone of an ass.
Thanks for proving my point. There is no correlation between minimum wage and UE.
It's immoral to pay people crap wages for their labor. That's the only truth that really matters.

The point if all you can get is a cashier job at McDonald's you should not expect to have a living wage. Those types of jobs are for teens, college kids home for the summer, and ex-cons

You can't say something never has worked when it's never been really tried. You still need to prove your point. Your contention was that giving people more money gives them more purchasing power. Do you even know the definition of that term? Because it seems you don't. More purchasing power means that you have more money today to purchase something that cost x dollars than you had before. That is the cost of the thing you wish to purchase has to stay the same when your income goes up for you to actually have more purchasing power and in this particular anecdote of ND, that isn't happening. Despite everyone's incomes going up, their purchasing power has stayed about the same because the costs of good and services went up with it. I'm mot kidding, when I ask you to show me ND is the exception. Show me some other instance where avg income rises but costs of goods and services don't. Clearly you can't do that.
The reason you're such a shitty investor is because you don't know shit about makes business work. You think to make lots of money business owners have to screw people over, when the fact is the most successfull businesses in the country are the ones where people want to work and the ones that treat their employees the best. In your rant you're bring up all kinds of crap that isn't remotely accurate about business. It's all left wing talking point crap.
It's a mystery to me how you worshipers of the BEAST managed to get Christians to support you or your kind. It's time you met a Christian, like Peter and like Samson, who took the jawbone of an ass and slaughtered thousands of you Philistines, and you are the jawbone of an ass.
Christians don't demand from others what they can achieve for themselves. They don't tell they're fellow man that someone else owes them they're livlihood which that someone else would have to earn for themselves before it can be given to someone else. Stop with the Christian bullshit because there's nothing God like or christian about your position. Your position is someone else is responsible for providing for your neccessities even if your perfectly capable of obtaining them on your own. Your position is your entitled to demand that from someone else. There is NOTHING christian about that.

Thanks to the fat free nonsense. The new grease makes them taste terrible.
Rip McDonalds
Killed by political correctness
That was the principle applied by FDR and it lifted us out of the Great Depression. He once referred to it as, "Sharing the wealth to accelerate growth." He raised the upper range of the progressive income tax to 91% and he created the WPA and CCC programs, which enabled my own parents to survive those bitter years.Well, that would be a little more the poor would have to spend to help stimulate the economy. Sounds good...
What you're saying is right. Incentive and ability should be appropriately rewarded. But the fact remains that everyone is not equally capable and someone must ask if "you want fries with that?" So it is nonetheless important to economic growth that every willing worker be paid a living wage -- even if it does negatively impact the bottom line of the upper income levels."I can't speak for everyone, I can only speak for me.

Not necessarily. The better alternative is McDonald's stock will fall a point or two.Well I guess the fries at McDonald's will be $7.00 if the minimum wage increases
This is true. Illegal immigration has contributed greatly to our economic problems and has significantly reduced the standard of living (and purchasing power) of the lower and lower-middle classes."I can't speak for everyone, I can only speak for me.

the key to both boys success is that they worked on their education and skills....and they got jobs that pay well because there is a DEMAND in the market for those skills....
today there are tons of people with the simple skills to ask "do you want fries with that?".....so employers need to pay less in order to keep their prices down to be competitive in that market....
stupid liberals would be smart to stop listening to BO and the Dimwits who are not helping them by allowing all those illegal unskilled workers to cross our borders......unskilled illegals flood the unskilled market jobs......closing the borders would mean there would be less competition and thus more DEMAND for unskilled jobs and so their wages would increase.....
"crap wages" are NOT "crap" to the guy who takes the job.....otherwise why would he take the job...?
Oh, so your position is that everyone in low paying jobs is there voluntarily because they prefer to be poor?
lol, you're retarded.
why would they be there "voluntarily" if they have the chops to get a better job....?
