Obama raising min wage- what do you think?

[Sam Odom]

Inceased minimum wage just lowers the cost of working for a living and passes it on to those that do. Its a shame that this sort of tactic gets votes.

Let's vote that SBR must give us 100 betpoints per day...

Would pizza stay at 450 pts ?

Look at demographics of dems and repubs. I don't think anyone here can really argue how the educated vote.......you can argue policy but the uneducated vote democratic. And it's not even close.

What you say isnt incongrous with what he says. I guess you fall into the uneducated.

I am reasonably educated and still made that statement. As Boner pointed out - you didn't refute my statement - just made another statement. That is like you saying the sky is blue and me arguing you by saying dirt is brown.

What's hilarious is all the people behind Obama clapping when he said they'll be making $10/hr. Congratulations! you penetrating idiots.

They'll magically be lifted into great wealth now Ballin'

If you work your whole life making minimum wage, then minimum wage ain't the problem.

We have a winner!!!!!!!!!

Perfect illustration. A fifth-grader can understand this.

[rickbo528]

Look at countries like Norway where the minimum wage is high. Their quality of life is 10x better than the US. Their country is not in debt or has inflation.

If it's so great..... MOVE THERE!!!!!!!!!!

[itchypickle]

You do realize Norway has the total GDP as the state of New Jersey right?

[King Mayan]

Make the min wage $35.00 hr mandatory across USA

Everyone is rich

35 dollars an hr is rich??

[King Mayan]

Rubber only because you make 75 cents more than minimum wage doesn't make you better.

[ChalkyDog]

I think it gives most companies the opportunity to increase their profit margins under the guise of the min. wage hike.

[k13]

You do realize Norway has the total GDP as the state of New Jersey right?

And?

They have a small population.

Look at their gdp per capita. That's all that matters.

[ACoochy]

You do realize Norway has the total GDP as the state of New Jersey right?

And yet look at how they're able to run that nation...

Why not start going after those that make the rules instead of the those without a voice and are powerless??

[ACoochy]

And?

Careful K, soon they'll be pulling out the old population excuse...

[ACoochy]

And here we have a winner...

Tackle wealth disparity before attacking those who dont have a voice...

[ACoochy]

Why are they the most powerless though? Most have "earned" that minimum wage job.........

Because they dont make the rules...

Go after the guys that make the rules if your looking for someone to blame for making your life not what you envisioned at a younger age...

[Sam Odom]

Lefties hate it that they cannot cap or determine the 'correct' amount of profit a company can earn

[ACoochy]

Lefties hate it that they cannot cap or determine the 'correct' amount of profit a company can earn

18 trillion

Yeah they proved to be SO responsible being left uncapped...

Those same ppl you support had no issue in letting your country go bankrupt back in 08, remember??

Enjoy telling your grandchildren that they'll never have it as good as you did Sammy...

[SBR_John]

Loved it when I was washing dishes. But raising the min wage when you have so many unemployed and a major tax bill about to be crammed down the throat of business(Obama Care), is crazy.

[Sam Odom]

AC , it is true tho... Dont you think 'enough is enough' as to corp profit ?

[Thor4140]

LMFAO. NY and LA always go for the Dems. Progressive states. Now the rednicks backwards of the world even tho dirt poor, vote republican over and over again. The dumbest of the dumb. I understand people making 250 thou a year voting republican but guys like u who prolly make piss is what i can't understand.

[Thor4140]

If it's so great..... MOVE THERE!!!!!!!!!!

why don't u move and take these other nitwits with ya.

[Sam Odom]

Enjoy telling your grandchildren that they'll never have it as good as you did Sammy...

Your boy Obama is doing the best he can to make that so

[Thor4140]

Note possible because the guys with the wealth disparity have these nitwits helping them load their car trunks under the guise of them being a billionaire someday.

[Sam Odom]

Thor , how would you redistribute the wealth ?

[ACoochy]

AC , it is true tho... Dont you think 'enough is enough' as to corp profit ?

When they are proven irresponsible with such a magnituse of wealth and show they cant be trusted then maybe it is time to look at the 'greed is good' mantra...

If a country like Poland can go after the people responsible for the bankruptcy of their system, only to bounce back and within 5 years be one of the fastest growing economies in the world then why arent you lot able to do something similar??

Its like the upper echelon in your country wouldnt know what accountability even meant...

[ACoochy]

Your boy Obama is doing the best he can to make that so

Not my boy, i dont/wont live there.

Obama is right wing where im from (btw 4 of 6 states are top 10 destinations in the world)...

[Sam Odom]

If you mean breaking laws then that is what the DOJ is for... if you mean some unwritten moral code then you must be asked - Do you want to pass laws based on YOUR moral code

And?

Complexity difference in the two is important. Still waiting to hear someone on the pro-hike side inform us as to where exactly the extra $$ is supposed to come from in order to increase payrolls. Today's hike by Obama is simple, he'll just borrow it - meaning probably a net loss once interest payment on updated debt is accounted for- something the rest of the private sector can't do when planning.

It's just a negative plan of action all the way around except for the political ploy. This is the insanity of govt operations vs private sector...no incentive to have a net gain on the govt side with anything. Doesn't add up so what, sounds like a fun thing to do, lets go for it! That will never win in the long run.

I'm all for targeting the politicians, pay based on accomplishments not votes. And the 'powerless' are the morons who keep voting in this crowd. I say we have voters pass a basic test to prove competency of issues and govt before allowing their vote to go forward. Too much at stake to allow idiots to choose who gets to call the shots. Harsh but accurate.
