Are you crazy? Keep raising the minimum wage? If you do that you have to increase wages for everyone.... Bruh i'm not even gonna get into the consequences for doing that. But let's just say HYPER-INFLATION.

We need to stop raising minimum wage, and raise the standards of people who work those jobs.



Nah bruh I work minimum wage... But I'm a student... I don't plan on being at this shyt for years, nor do I need this shyt to live.

Wait so the minimum wage should still be at the $3.25 it was three decades ago? :ohhh:

The only nikkas happy is the nikkas who work minimum wage jobs.... :mjlol:


People with real jobs, careers, and businesses are mad as fukk cause prices will rise, and our dollar will lose buying power. :francis:




McDonalds will change the dollar menu to the $2.99 menu. :mjlol:

And the employees will be replaced by computer screens and automation. :mjlol:


You getting money but, you worried about two extra dollars on the dollar menu :francis:

You shouldn't EVEN be eating McDonald's anyway :francis:

If price levels rise, its because they were suppressed in the first place. Minimum wage hasn't kept up with productivity since our grandparents were our age :francis:

Take a intro Economics class bro

Corporate America outsourced our manufacturing to third world shyt holes and brought back minimum wage jobs in return

It's all good though because you can cop a toshiba laptop for $199

30 years ago you wouldn't be working for $7.50 at 20....that's the point youngin :childplease: you'd be at an entry level factory for $30K paying your schooling as you go with no loans

America prospered because we ate off of both World wars and corporate america paid their workers enough to purchase their products and become the middle class.

Then they realized they could outsource, pay people peanuts and have the corporate lab rats finance their lives through debt

Not great but it's a start. Minimum wage should reflect the cost of living. It doesn't matter what you do, 40 hours a week should be able to cover your basic needs. Now, how far up the ladder do you go from there is up to you.

Back in my day when had my first job (2006) I was only making $5.25 an hour. Its currently 7.25 where I am. I think $10 an hour would be a good increase, but anymore than that, and we might run into problems its seems. For one, a lot of jobs that pay $10 an hour, where I am, require you to have at least an Associates Degree. What is the incentive for someone like me, who has put in the time and effort to get an Associates Degree, going to be if I see some high school graduate making more per hour than me. Thats just one of the immediate issues I see with increasing the MW any higher than $10.
