What does the Coli think about this video: Minimum Wage vs Living Wage

[Actually6Foot3]

He went off the rails in the end in my opinion but he made some great points in the beginning. I never really thought about how arbitrary the minimum wage is and I'm a Bernie supporter.

And his point about small businesses made sense to me now. Because while the populous would have increased cash to spend. The big box stores could absorb the hit an increase in the minimum wage would cost meanwhile smaller businesses might suffer as they increase prices meanwhile big corporations could keep prices as is until the competition folds. As much as Americans love talking about small business they will always go where their dollar goes further. So Walmart gets the business while Jims Neighborhood Tire Shop goes belly up.

What are y'all thoughts though ?

 

[Easy-E]

Small Businesses have bigger problems than minimum wage. And minimum wage ain't stopping automation. It's a distraction of an issue.

Doesnt even matter,your working for free


You are "indentured servants" which was basically another word for voluntary house nikkas who got treated a little better.You are working for your freedom. You are working for comfortability.The problem with people is that theyve been brainwashed more and more on what "comfortable" is.

my politics are simple

billionaires shouldn't exist

and everybody deserves affordable healthcare and education, shelter, quality food and a proper work life balance, on top of paid vacation, sick and maternity leave.

I ain't got time for a "entrepreneur" to tell me what my people are fighting for isn't worth while.
