I don’t have a huge beef with the Seattle $15 per hour min wage. Didn’t support it but what evs. $15 nationally is fucking idiotic.

Bernie is a hypocrit now dealing with the effects of an arbitrary politically driven "minimum wage". The point is that forced minimum wages result in job loss. Simple fact. It's a bad idea as is the idea that every job has enough value to require a "living wage" to fill. Raising the minimum wage kills jobs that would otherwise provide the kind of basic skills people have traditionally used to subsequently improve their lot in life.

GDS

Imagine that. He wants his employees to work something close to a 40 hour work week. What an asshole!

All minimum wages are idiotic. Making it illegal for people to work who aren’t worth the minimum wage is immoral.

MikeDamone

Imagine agreeing to a salary and then bitching about an hourly wage.

So he basically told them they can’t work more than 40 hours a week so they would be at $15?

I’m trying to imagine a scenario when I was 24 when I was working tons of hours to gain experience and knowledge that would pay off big in the future, where I would bitch to my company that working overtime made my effective hourly rate too low. Bernie staffers should stay with him. They will get laughed out of the real world.

Imagine a young ambitious person on salary bitching about min wage. Oh, they aren’t ambitious. Fuck. 12 hour days at Microsoft in the 90s were considered half days.

I was against $15 an hour in Seattle for the reasons you and @Southerndawg have stated here. But it’s a high rent district up here and not a hill worth dying on. That said, $15 an hr in Topeka, KS is like $25 or $30 an hour is Seattle. It’s a ludicrous number for all but the 10 or so most expensive cities in the US.

I’m against a minimum wage because I actually care about the poor.

Imagine not being able to work because you are worth $14/hour.

Oh that's right. Mike thinks that when you raise minimum wage, business owners cut jobs. Even tho that's never happened in the history of minimum wage increases.

1) I didn’t say that you dumb fuck.
2)Economic ignorance is bliss. Love to hear more from a fucking moron who won’t even read a basic economics text.
3) Normally i’d say a person is stupid or a liar. In your case I’m picking abundance.
4)of course you love minimum wage. You’re a racist
