  • Company car
  • Gas card
  • Free meals
  • Hookers
  • Free insurance
  • 200 days vacation
  • 165 sick days
  • Clothing allowance

:lmao:

Your tell that you've lost the argument.

No, not really.. like I asked before, why not be really fair and mandate a $50k minimum wage?

Why not bring back slavery?

Bring back? What do you think the welfare system has become?
 
again, wherever there is a decent minimum wage, businesses do better.

:cuckoo:
Not if it puts them out of business.

If you can't pay a decent wage in the US and make money, then you should go out of business, or find a new way of doing business.

Who sets the "decent wage", who is "owed" it, and why?

We the People. We have a government of the People.
no, we really do not.
if we did there would be no obamacare
 
One thing i've learned in my years of observing angry greedy white Republican dude...

When he's bitchin & moanin, it means American Workers must be doing pretty good. It's when he's quiet, you have to worry. When he's quiet, that means American Workers are being completely flucked. Ole Bernie Sanders has em spooked. And that's a good thing. Someone's gotta keep em in check. Maybe Bernie is the man?

These are minimum wage jobs:

No one is forced to take those minimum wage type jobs. Dumbass
Don't like to pay, don't like the job, get something better, quit being a victim, move up not down in life, quit feeling sorry for yourself, like I said life is no charity.
No wonder this country is getting their ass kicked...
In your opinion, are there enough jobs that aren't minimum wage in this country for every able bodied man and woman?
 
That damn reality slaps the left in the face every time.

Oregon Governor Abandons $15+ Minimum Wage

Facing a barrage of criticism from business, and labor skepticism over threats of higher unemployment, Oregon Governor Kate Brown is scaling back her $15.52 minimum wage proposal.

A November report by the Manhattan Institute, “Counterproductive: The Employment and Income Effects of Raising America’s Minimum Wage to $12 and to $15 per Hour,” concludes that raising minimum wages is likely to result in adverse consequences that would lower total national income levels.

“The earnings gained for those who would keep their jobs would be outweighed by the earnings lost by those who would become jobless,” the report detailed. “As a result, the net income gains tend to be smaller or more negative when using the annual earnings approach than when using the wage approach.”

Facing concerns from the right and the left that her minimum wage proposal was an obvious job killer in Oregon, Gov. Brown blinked on January 28 and has scaled back her proposal to only a $.50 raise per hour statewide July increase, from $9.25 to $9.75-per-hour. The Portland metro area would see an increase in July 2017 to $11.25 an hour, with the rest of the state’s minimum wages rising to $10.25 an hour.

You left this part out, dumb ass. She's passing the buck, kicking the can down the road like demonrats always do

Nope. Here's her original plan, Skanky. She originally had it extended out to 2022.

Governor Kate Brown Announces Plan for Statewide Minimum Wage Increase


(Salem, OR) — Governor Brown today announced her plan to increase the minimum wage statewide. The proposal was developed after conversations with stakeholders in both the public and private sectors. Their input was essential to finding Oregon's path forward to a higher minimum wage. The plan will be brought for debate during the 2016 legislative session next month.

"The costs of essentials such as food, child care, and rent are rising so fast that wages can't keep up,” said Governor Brown. “Many Oregonians working full-time can't make ends meet, and that's not right."

Recognizing that Oregon businesses need certainty and time to plan, the proposal calls for a two-tiered minimum wage that increases gradually over the next six years, starting in 2017. The plan establishes a higher minimum wage in the Portland metropolitan area, where the economy is growing faster and has traditionally been stronger, than in the rest of the state.

Outside of the Portland Urban Growth Boundary, the wage will be raised to $10.25 in 2017 and increase to $13.50 by 2022. Within Portland’s Urban Growth Boundary, the wage will be set at 15 percent above the statewide minimum wage, increasing to $15.52 by 2022.

After 2022, the minimum wage will return to the current rate of increase, in conjunction with the Consumer Price Index.


Breitbart lies. She did not abandon anything. Dupe.

Most people have the power of reason. You may have heard of it.

Indeed, but I have yet to see it exercised by you or those like-minded here.
 
How low can the greedy white Republican dudes sink? Celebrating American Workers making less money? Yeah, only a hateful white Republican can do that. We as a nation, should be embarrassed and ashamed of our dismal Minimum Wage.

Oh whatever, and yes, fetch m an apple pie while you're at it.

Seriously, y'all celebrating Americans making less money is pretty sad. It's the ultimate hateful greedy mentality. Yeah, i'm beginning to think it is time for a an extreme Socialist/Communist like Bernie Sanders. He'll put y'all greedy white Republican dudes back in your place. You guys are forcing me to consider joining the Bernie Sanders Revolution.
Bernie don't know jack shit about reality after all he's a career politician...
They are only accustomed to taking...

Still, you guys make it miserable for American Workers every chance you get. You worship the greedy Corporate Fatcats, while hating & abusing the least fortunate among us. How do you guys live with yourselves? Maybe it is time for someone like ole Bernie? You guys need to be reigned in. You're out of control.
Life is not an charity, never was meant to be.
Now go hide..

Ha, and most of you greedy white Republican dudes consider yourselves 'Good Christians.' Jesus fed and clothed the least fortunate among him. He didn't turn his back on them because he didn't see monetary profit in it. Y'all greedy folks need to attend some 'Come to Jesus' meetings. I think it'll really help.

Truth and facts are irrelevant to these idiots. One of the nitwits creates the post, and the rest of the herd just runs with it.

you need to become a Christian before you tell Christians how they should be acting.
Your words are empty and have no weight.

Jesus didn't feed, clothe, and heal the least fortunate among him for monetary profit. He did it because they needed the help.
 
JESUS said to feed the hungry and poor. Not have the government confiscate the money from others.

So no good Christian should vote for any politician who supports the food stamp program?
No one need be a Christian to know that subsidizing sloth is wrong.

So why are Christian churches spending billions every year subsidizing 'sloth'?

I see you do not understand the difference between voluntary charity and forced contribution.

I see that you do not understand "provide for the common welfare"

The phrase in the preamble is "promote the general welfare", not "provide". In the Taxing and Spending Clause it is "provide for the General Welfare". Both are limited to activities mandated by the limits placed upon the government in the document.

"General welfare" is not and never was carte blanche for the federal government to steal money from some citizens and give it to others. If you can show me writings of the FF's to support your argument, I will retract my statement.

Nah, he's got you greedy folks really worked up. And i see that as a good thing. It means he's standing up for American Workers. You guys have had free reign for far too long. You've completely flucked struggling American Workers. Maybe it is time for Bernie.
