I know most of GLP was against the living wage, due to the egoic competitive nature of the insecurity they feel inside... but maybe people will start realizing... $15/hr would get a lot of these people back up on their OWN feet instead of unemployment. $15 an hour is not a living wage when the government shut the entire economy down, can and will probably do it again. It's not a living wage when the business owner needs to lay off half of the staff in order to pay the other workers $15 an hour and all your Marxist BS/AOC bullshit is going to lead to the complete automation/robotization of retail and restaurants. Good points. And the previous idiotic poster does not understand economic fundamentals in regards to what happens when the chattel class jobs (i.e. low I.Q. acceptable, low job performance not life critical, etc...) raise wages to $15/hour. After a period of "economic sorting", those idiots will still have the same ratio of expenditures as they had making $9/hour. This means everything, from their apartment rental to gas/food/entertainment/clothing will still cost them the same proportionally to what it did at their lower wage. But retards are going to retard, no matter what knowledge they are given. |

It’s been dead, and has been for a long time. It’s just now after decades the truth has come light. You all better wake up. From the beginning of this nations independence and sovereignty there has been those in high positions and with great power having self fulfilling agendas and augmenting any narrative to fit theirs. You can’t make sense of anything because it goes further back before you were alive, hell, it even predates before your great great grandmother was born. Government has battered the people. High taxes and regulations on businesses. Food prices have soared. Cost of living has soared. $30/hr @ 40hrs/wk could not allow a man to provide for his wife and two kids while she raises them. Wonder why families are broken and kids are bad? 45 years ago all of America let illegals walk right on in for the sake of cheap labor to build America’s infrastructure up. You reap what you sow. Government owns society and always will. They have a grip on power and it continues to be passed down from one generation to the next in their families. Trump supporters had the chance of a lifetime back a few months ago, but they pussed out. They didn’t exercise their 2nd amendment right their on captiol hill. That could have changed the course of history but it wasn’t meant to be. There will never be a chance like that again. |

DOESN’T. WORK! You raise wages or give free money and you create generalized inflation. Especially in the rental communities. People can no longer afford to have minimally livable lifestyle at $15 an hour or even with their monthly “living wage.” Rent, food and fuel all spike first. Moreover, 15 an hour businesses end up cutting staff and raising customer prices, which drives down demand and will cause some weaker (mom and pop) stores to close. So you destroy small business, while the big corporations shrug and pay the new minimum wage and cut only a smaller amount of employees from their staff. You have just created a huge fuckin mess. But it gets worst: people who are already making $15 an hour as skilled labor will now need to earn more to survive. They will request a higher salary or have to leave their jobs and get rehired somewhere else for a higher salary. This shit goes all the way up the chain. Suddenly mid tier employees are no longer mid tier and want higher salaries, same for high tier. The only people NOT affected, as usual, are the executives. This is why we are against raising a minimum wage a huge amount suddenly. It creates chaos, job loss, restructuring, business closures, increased prices on goods and generalized inflation all around. In the end, you find yourself right where you started before. Suddenly $15 an hour isn’t a livable wage again because of inflation and high rent demands. You fucked everything up for everyone for a few years and fuckin fixed NOTHING. minimum wage, no matter what the hourly value is set at, is meant to be an intro wage for people to make money. It requires no learned skills, and is usually extremely repetitive in nature. It is meant as a temporary income while you get schooling in an advanced skill that is in demand. You then climb the ladder to the next income tier when you finish schooling and get a job in your field. As you get better at using that skill and learn supplementary skills you will be promoted and earn even more money. At some point you will be promoted into management where you will manage other people as they work in your skill area. Instruct them, lead them, teach them new supplementary skills you picked up along the way and make sure the work quality is at your level. You earn GREAT money for this and you are in demand due to your skill set. This is how it works. Everyone benefits if they try hard and work hard. Sitting at minimum wage and crying and complaining that it is not a livable salary tells me just one thing: you are lazy and want more money for no more effort. You are lazy and make people in society feel sorry for your lazy lifestyle. You need to want more, do more. |

With COVID it was increased by a $1,000 a month. She can’t spend it all so shops and gives food away. Of course they are all obese. I am currently in Lake Tahoe, signs everywhere needing employees. I saw one for a $500 sign on bonus for a cook. Another place had a sign that they are now closed 2 days a week because they don’t have staff. I run two businesses and we have the same problem for jobs ranging from $15.50-$20.00 per hr and we can’t get applicants. By the way this increased livable wage has made a fast food meal on average go to $14-16. All goods are skyrocketing. We are being set-up for a serious fall. Think of all the people relying on government, including businesses, for their paycheck. I get e-mails daily from the SBA with offers for business loans. This isn’t going to end well. Where are all these employees supposed to live when they work for you?!? Fuck all wealthy people in the States. Absolute whiny crybaby demons. |
