Wages are too high.

"We have to become competitive with the world. Our taxes are too high, our wages are too high. Everything is too high. We have to compete with other countries."

    I think we should have federally mandated wages. Fuck it, the federal government should take over private business. That would help.

    Are you 10 years old or just really fucking stupid? Or abundance?

    Sounds like you agree wages are too high. You going to volunteer a pay cut first?

    The markets and economy need to dictate wage levels. It is completely illogical to just pull arbitrary wage numbers out of your ass and call it fair.

    Hondo the only pay cut you are worried about is that of your EBT and free phone you lazy fuck. Zippeth thy crap trap and go back to eating free ham sandwich in moms cunthole.

    I love it when people who don't, and likely won't ever (Hi @HondaFS!), make enough to pay REAL taxes always claim taxes aren't high enough. I just love that.

    I mean seriously, who doesn't want punitive taxation on the successful people, so that the useless lay abouts can continue their meth addictions in peace in their trailer?

    Did I say anything about a minimum wage? All y'all are projecting. I've never once supported a $15 minimum wage.

    The article is about Trump thinking wages are too high, we need to lower wages to compete with other countries.

    You guys clearly lack reading comprehension. (If you want my personal opinion, going to $15 minimum wage, or having a higher minimum wage in localities like Seattle and SeaTac is dumb. But I do support a federal minimum wage going up nominally, say to $10 over the next 3 years).
