Raising the min wage, while beneficial in some aspects, is usually short lived for most of the benefit and the increase in wages are absorbed by the cost of goods and services everyone has to pay. Ah no....that’s fucking 100% bullshit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

These ducking idiots arguing that they won’t see any net benefit from a increase in wages because inflation will eat it up are the dumbest cocksucking assholes alive Disposable income may gain a few years, but minimum wage is minimum wage.

But I suppose if more of us actually understood what's been going on we'd probably have a new economic system by now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wages across the board need to rise if we are ever to have any hope of unwinding the gigantic amounts of debt we've been incurring propping up demand. I was slightly concerned there for a minute. Without some across the board plan for all wage earners (within reason), you only kick the football down the road. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Raising the minimum wage has to happen. Simply raising the minunum wage does just that, it doesn't do anything for someone currently making just above the new minimum wage from staying where they are at. A bracketed wage increase has to accommodate a raise in minimum wage, to an extent. If you were making $22/hr, you'll now be making $25/hr. per the new law (example, not thought out numbers). If you were making $75/hr, you shouldn't expect to see a wage increase. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
