Is a "genious" a lib that can't spell simple words?


The Mayans had it right. If you�re going to predict the future, it�s best to aim far beyond your life expectancy, lest you wind up red-faced in a bunker overstocked with Spam and ammo.

It already sucks that it's difficult for kids who want to work to find work. Is $15/hr going to improve the job prospects? Methinks not.

If a young person doesn't begin working until they are young adults, it should be no surprise when many of them find other ways to get by or simply work at a half-assed rate. I kind of like the idea of having minimum wage jobs that can employ unskilled willing young people. It helps them learn the value of money. It can also motivate them to improve their ability to earn more through furthering their education and skills. Incremental wage increases are a good thing. Wage doubling is a very bad idea.

The point remains that Trump has flipped again.

8/20/15 “Now, I want to create jobs so that you don’t have to worry about the minimum wage, you’re doing a great job, and you’re making much more than the minimum wage,” he said via phone on MSNBC’s “Morning Joe.” “But I think having a low minimum wage is not a bad thing for this country.”

At this point, you're shilling for Hillary.

Why do these political discussions have to be so personal? Seems rather juvenile to me.

It's the Trump effect. The leader showed the way.

So you deduce from this and what he said yesterday that he is all in for $15?
Really?
Minimum wage is just that, but should be adjusted for inflation periodically. Even though we now have the second administration that reports basically zero to little inflation.

Well maybe not in your area, but where I live its about an average pay scale for most jobs. I"m barely over that and to get a lot more I"d have to move to a city or commute to a city...

Although I disagree that there should even be a minimum wage personally.

Govt intervening has got to stop, the rest would sort itself out.

The whole notion that raising the minimum wage is going to help the lower wage earners, is idiotic.

Scenario:
I've got guys working for me that are making $14 to $16 an hour, which is about $6 or $7 above minimum, 30%. If the minimum wage goes up to $15, I'll have to raise their pay to $22. Who will pay for this? YOU WILL, the consumer. It'll cause inflation and prices of everything will go up 30% in order to cover it. The low wage earners will still be behind the 8 ball and not be able to make a living off of that and the pay raise will be worthless. This is simple capitalism, which the Dems do not understand.

I was supporting Cruz. That doesn't seem to have worked out. Support Hillary if you like, Chump.

What ever happened to the old American work ethic? If you want to make more money, get out there and bust your azz and work your way up the ladder and make more money. Hand outs ain't gonna make it happen.
