Why not quadruple it? They can never answer this question no matter what and it's obvious why.
>>534074789But my wages won't go up...
>>534074789NOooo I'll go back to being a min wagie at this rate
>>534074789the casual noticer will observe they only do this when there's no chance of it passing
>>534074873No lets keep it very low. Poor people need to pull themselves up by the bootstraps
>>534074873What's wrong with minimum wage being the value it was when boomers were alive?>w-we'll raise pricesOkay, arrest the people who do. Charge them with treason against the american people. Every single person hoarding or taking money out of this country should be audited for fraud and funding foreign interests to subvert our country.
>>534074789It won't pass, that's why they made it triple. It's only for show. The problem is wage garnishment is tied to minimum wage * multiplier. If they increase the minimum wage, a lot of people will no longer be garnishment eligible.
That's not going to take care of the Total Default brick wall that U.S. treasury hits four years from now if she and her Congressmates continue to rubberstamp $2.2 trillion/annum spending bills.
>corporations want to be allowed to charge 9001% more>cry about having to pay more for laborbeat them all to death and hang them from the lampposts
>>534074789>breaking next: walmart triples egg pricesdo midwits not understand that shit like this just forces a net vertical transformation on literally everything else?
peg minimum wage to E1 pay / 2085EZ pz I hate fags. Currently that's about 12.13Still a bit low, but better than nothing.
>>534074873It needs to rise with the rate of inflation.
NOOOOOOOOOOOO GIVE IT TO ISRAEL INSTEAD
>>534074789Ok but if they do this how will the US fund the war against Iran and Trumps ballroom now? Democrats once again show they have no business sense
>>534074789yeah, thats what it would be about if wages were at all any way related to the actual value of currency.unfortunately thats not how it isthe money is worthless.this doesnt not make it worthless.the same problems now will happen again no matter how high they make it.because the money has no valuethe money is worthlessspeculation is a terminal disease for currency it seems.
>>534075246The prices already went up. The wages didn't. Do midwits not understand shit like this?
>>534074789Aoc looking rough
>>534074789basedrepublicans have NOTHINGthe correct way to raise wages to meet inflation is to stop immigration, but republicans are whores to CEOs so they won't do it.At least democrats are trying to find solutions, even if they're not the best ones
>triple the minimum wage>my savings is now worth nothinggreat, thanks guys. way to really reward long-term thinking
>>534075246This guy gets it. Trickle down economics always leads to better returns on the stock market and that means the economy is doing better
Kek econoniggers will see this and know this is very fucking bad, anyone got a wheelbarrow i can borrow?
>>534075448the actual solutions such as the one you propose will make The Holy Gee Dee Pee line go down and boomers and kikes would rather kill everyone on the planet before they let that happen.
>>534075460The value of the currency has already dropped. Didn't you know? That's why prices are so much higher now.
>>534074789>now that we're out of power and have no chance to accomplish anything, we'll pretend we wanted to do something meaningfulsame shit as Republicans voting to repeal Obamacare 100 times until they got power
>>534075460It's almost like the only way for a few people to be successful the majority of others have to fail, by its very design
>>534074789>Quadruple minimum wage>Economy goes up by a factor of 4>Now my rent and food costs 4 times as much Yippee? More imaginary money for jews to collect? Hooray?
>>534074789> low-skilled muds flood the U.S. with cheap labor and displace local wagies > wages stagnate for decades> we’re oppressed and need a law to increase the minimum wage!If the minimum wage is increased to $20 it will just lead to automation or actually hiring people with basic skills. I would support this except that many shitbags with government union jobs have their salaries tied to the national minimum wage and would be the real beneficiaries of this. That’s why these sheklegrabbers that have infiltrated their way into union leadership are pushing so hard for this.
>>534075628Implement price fixing to prevent people from raising the costs.
>>534075246Except it doesn't as shown in all the counties with strong unions and higher base wages. There is no excuse for it being sub $8. The floor should be up near at least $20. Anyone working full time should be able to at least live some sort of life. We already supplement them now with EBT ect going to like Walmart workers being they don't get paid enough to even eat. It's bs.
>>534075565>As above so belowIt's baked into the very fabric of our reality, anon. One can't exist without the other.
>>534074789The Democrat grift is to introduce bills they know well in advance are going to fail so that they can turn their failure into a propaganda circus about how they're """trying""" without needing to actually follow through.If it were possible for this bill to succeed, they wouldn't have drafted it.Reminds me of how Joe Biden signed an executive order to forgive 20k of student debt followed with a borderline fake website to "apply" for it. It didn't ask for account numbers, or information, just an email address and a name, basically. All this right before the midterms to drum up support for Dem candidates.After the midterms, it was quietly decided that the whole thing wasn't legal and they memory-holed it. Blame Republicans, ad nauseum.If there was even a chance this shit was real, they wouldn't be talking about it. That's their scam. Pretend to do shit that people would like only when they've mathematically ruled out the possibility of it passing, then blame Republicans when it fails, just like they predicted in advance it would. If it DOES have a chance of passing as-is, they add pork to the bill that Republicans will hate to force them into voting against it. If they wanted to drum up support, this is what they do:>"The people want clean drinking water? Okay! Well, we won't do that because it will offend corporate oligarchs, so draft a bill called "Clean drinking water for kids," then add 100 page addendum to the bill that also gives 200 billion dollars for Kenya. When Republicans vote against that shit, cry about how they only failed because pubs are evil."They just want the appearance of helping Americans without any follow-through whatsoever. If they weren't a party of lying snakes they would actually be helping Americans instead of just unhelpfully pretending to constantly. They only care about optics, and optics don't require them to actually do shit when they have a legion of cultists justifying all their purposefully poisoned failures.
>>534074789It's kind of actually insane that we've had giga-inflation since the min-wage hikes of the last term, and still no one realizes that is the driving force behind inflation because they want to just keep blaming the other sides' guy for it. Niggers, inflation is thr increase of every cost from the top of the pyramid down so that elites retain relative value of the wealth thry take in despite wage increase at bottom of pyramid. It's fucking simple. Min wage increase alone does absolutely nothing but cause inflation, and it is the no1 cause of all the inflation we have seen in the past 5 years. Only regulating kikery accomplishes anything. Or removing it by force.
>>534074974That's how you separate the wheat from the chaff.
>>534074789>CONGRESS TRIPLES MINIMUM WAGESo what then like $23 an hour, big whoop doesn't sound as impressive as "triples"
>>534075685Socialism and communism aren't the solutions for jewry, you're just changing the flavor.
>>534075694Ya it's bs
>>534074789Minimum wage should be $100-150/hr to match the price of gold in 1970
>>534074974>>534074984>>534075293See how none of you answered the question just like I predicted?
>>534074873If the minimum wage kept up with inflation since 1964 it'd be over $60 an hour. Boomers need to shut the fuck up. They lived life on baby mode, kids working at burgerking made more than the average college graduate today.
>>534074789Surely this will help the affordability crisis. topkek
>>534074789OY VEY THE GOYIM ARE NOTICING. QUICK PUSH RED. ACTIVATE THE RED BUTTON EGLIN BOTS. SHUT IT DOWN
>>534075720Based. They want the issue, not the solution to the issue. Dems made bodycams on ICE agents a condition for DHS funding. Then when GOP agreed to it they changed their mind and opposed it because it would help the government identify agitators.Biden claimed he would reschedule weed by the end of his term, then Kamala would do it if we elected her. Trump is actually doing the thing, thus taking the issue away from them. Now they are complaining because “muh oppressed minorities are still in prison for drug crimes”.
Instead of raising wages, why not lower the cost of living, especially the cost of housing?
>>534074789The only "people" working for minimum wage (often less) are illegals. No-one would be able to hire around me for minimum wage, so they don't. The free market unironically works fine for this.>b-b-but I want more money!If tripling the current minimum wage would actually directly affect your wage, you either need to make yourself more valuable or stop selling yourself short.
>>534076042
>>534074789Only results in even more unemployed. This is how the disingenuous dems create their voters. And the voters don't realize it.
Durr lets just double the amount of money in the economy every 10 years, it may not be a perfect system but its the only one weve got
>>534074789Why not just make prices come down that would do far more to help the average person than a minimum wage increase.
>>534076042I asked why not quadruple it. Notice how you didn't answer either like I predicted?
>minimum wage is bad>corporate welfare is good
>>534074873Money is literally fake. The pandemic proved it. 90% of people could stay home and get checks and nothing would happen
>>534074789>3x minimum wage>cut 2/3 of jobs
>>534074789Couldn't pick a worse front-man for your performative legislation than a subversive pallywood bitch, what happened to the democrats trying to win big straight white men
>>534076514Some jobs will always be essential. Namely, the ones that give immigrants visas.
>>534076539big=back*
>>534076436See how you too couldn't answer the question like I predicted? 0/5 thus far.
>>534074789The only people that will prosper will be blue collar workers and Mexicans. I'm for it, especially when it means shitcanning more Indians.
>>534074789>opposition says let's triple minimum wage and give everyone a puppy and a handjob!>the evil people in power said no!>don't vote for them!people fall for this?
>>534074789Hyper-inflation here we come. Give us your vote now, die later retard.
>>534076647Women brah
>>534076647Yes brown people like the person in the picture
>>534076514Stockholders would rather have the whole world burn down than lose a single penny in profit.
>>534075377But this time its different because we dont use physical cash money its all digital. Having to wheelbarrow a stack of cash around for a loaf of bread sucks, having five more significant digits in your checking account doesn't change the size of your debit card.
>>534075448>At least democrats are trying to find solutions, even if they're not the best onesYeah turns out flooding the country with millions of immigrants, mostly illegals, isn't the best solution.
>>534075533>That's why prices are so much higher now.A lot of prices haven't changed at all.It's almost as if it's a abstract boogeyman to justify price collusion.
>>534075460>With 2% inflation your money loses half its purchasing power every 25 years.Holding fiat currency is the dumbest possible thing to do, turn that paper trash into tangible assets like land and tools, if nothing else gambling on the stock market is better than saving it.Saving money only works if it's backed by something besides a promise note from a kike.
>>534076658>Hyper-inflation here we comeThis is still a better outcome for the average person because it will make it easier to pay their fixed debt such as mortgages, auto loans and student loans so the average person shouldn't care if if it happens.
>>534076895PEOPLE CAN'T AFFORD GROCERIES
>>534074789>Minimum wage triples>Rent and groceries tripleNothing personal
>>534075460Imagine thinking saving inflationary currency was a good idea kek
>>534074789>>534074966They know the midterms coming up so they got to lay it on
>>534076565but all easy jobs that hire a lot of people? supermarkets, restaurants, takeaway, shop clerks, etc, they'll have 1/3 of the jobs whilst expecting people to work 5x as hardand you'll have all the low skilled immigrants as well as everyone who lost their job fighting for those jobsthat's what's happened in the UK, we raised the minimum wage and now no one can get a job, not even a shitty shelf stacker or fast food job
>>534075246and all the people in the middle who have been grinding away for marginal salary increases for years are basically back to square one
I never understood why anyone hates this. deport all illegals and stop the government from using the money printer and you can makr the same as boomers did when they were 16
>>534076404Cheap imported labor IS corporate welfare. Shipping companies have replaced Teamsters with Punjabi fuckups to save money, while society pays the costs in lives and money. Part of the reason prices continue to increase, in addition to COVID supply line disruptions, is Trump’s immigration policy. Illegals are deported, leave, or don’t try to come in. The shortage of black market labor spills over into legal low wage markets like food and landscaping, increasing wages for those workers. This raises the costs of the final products in those industries. I’m fine with this, at least workers are getting the money instead of the company bosses.
>>534074789What reason would republicans have to possible vote against this?
Still wouldnt be enough. And nobody did anything yet. Clickbait thread. Bills get introduced constantly
>>534075460>triple the minimum wage>my savings is now worth nothingBut it will be great for the typical deeply indebted American.
>>534077017This means an economy without savings, which implies long term capital accumulation will never occur for local individuals and communities. The result, ghettoization, deindustrialization, enslavement by bankers.
Its funny that chuds cry and shit their pants when rising the minimum wage.But are totally silent about the central bank, raising inflation to give loans for ((them))
>>534074789>CONGRESS TRIPLES MINIMUM WAGEIllinois will be TRIPLE BANKRUPT overnight, SEIU Public Workers like Teachers, Police, and Emergency service workers base salary is based off of multiples of Minimum Wage.That's why minimum wage never goes up, because all these people that are already in the top 5-10% of earners on the public dole, are already making 120-250k a year.
This would only be ok if they deported every foreign worker
>>534076820both parties do that
>>534076042This. If in the 50's, they wanted to pay you a nickle for 25c worth of work, the boomers would murder people.
>>534074789This will massively increase GDP, thank God someone in Congress is usin’ their noggin for once!
>>534076315Those five quarters are worth $66 today.
>>534077255>What reason would republicans have to possible vote against this?POLICE hourly wages would triple when it becomes law.No municipality in the USA can afford that.
>>534077041The average person is going to be struggling with 80% unemployment.
>>534077558Are police paid minimum wage? Looking at most cop salaries they seem hilariously overpaid, not to mention their insane pensions and benefits that municipalities gleefully approve.
>>534074789Why don’t they just increase minimum wage to $100 an hour?
>>534077927Why not increase it to match elon musk's annual salary so we can all be the richest man on earth?
>>534077927>>534078121No one can ever say why. It causes their brain uncomfortable thoughts, so they don't think it to begin with.
>>534074873>Why not quadruple it?Its basically a game where they have to keep enough freshly printed money flowing into employim labor after sifting through the jews at the infinite money tap/doled out via fraud otherwise the real world consumer economy that keeps the population maintained will die.So they've basically assessed that tripling the minimum wage is adequate enough to stabilize things at the current time.
>>534077767>Are police paid minimum wage? Looking at most cop salaries they seem hilariously overpaid, not to mention their insane pensions and benefits that municipalities gleefully approve.No Public Service Workers (SEIU) workers base wages, and Pensions are based off of multiples of minimum wage like 4 times minimum age.
>>534074789>Bill introductionThis means precisely jack shit.
>>534078121>Why not increase it to match elon musk's annual salary so we can all be the richest man on earth?Elon Musk didn't get rich off of his salary which is closer to $1 a year, than any amount he makes a day.
>>534074789FUCK THE MINIMUM WAGEWHEN ARE JANNIES GOING TO BE REWARDED FOR THEIR SERVICES?
>>534074873jews
>>534078121That would cause immediate hyperinflation, because (for example) everyone would buy everything off the stores with all the cash they have, which would force all stores to raise their prices out of reach or else run out of stocks. That is the difference between hyper inflation and controlled inflation. Rate of increase.
>>534074966It's good bait for their mouthbreather hordes.
>>534074873cant quadruple it because trump needs to send money to israel
>>534074789TRIPLE JANNY'S SALARY!!!
>>534078221>So they've basically assessed that tripling the minimum wage is adequate enough to stabilize things at the current time.if only there was some homeostatic feedback mechanism that automatically stabilizes without the need for the State at all...something like a market maybe
>>534078273Yeah this is gonna be fucking awesome. Maybe they'll triple property taxes at the same time to compensate and have their 1/3rd strength police evict half the county.
>>534076436>nothing will happen>except for the 50% inflation that we've seen over the last 5 years
>>534074873Cool it with the antisemitism
>>534075389When wages go up for knuckle dragging niggers like you they don't go up for people who actually try. That's the fucking problem. No matter what you're still going to be dirt poor, you're just dragging people who make 20, 30, 40 an hour down with you and making it increasingly impossible to escape poverty because you're a lazy sack of spic shit. You'll understand how little making more matters if you ever make more than a burger flippers salary you fucking bug, and it's all because we're being forced to carry your weight.
its meaningless without price controls
>>534078917>without the need for the Statethe state produces the currency used in your nu era market, and a key problem is most people don't recognize the implication that all the currency starts circulation from somewhere
>>534074789Why not make the minimum wage 100k a year for 20 hours a week. That'll show those billionaires.
>>534079155>i only make 20 an hour and it upsets me burger flippers will make that much too :(yeah we know
>>534074789Are they trying to increase citizen unemployment and encourage under-the-table arrangements with immigrants?The last 10 years have basically been a case study in not having a minimum wage, and it works out reasonably well. Even gas stations are hiring at 2.5x it.
>>534074984>use the power of the state to force people to do what you wantthis is how Russia ended up being a dictatorship, you morons straight up never fucking learn, ever
>>534074984>w-we'll raise prices>Okay, arrest the people who do. If you're just going to go for price control then why bother with raising the minimum wage? Just force people to lower prices and keep wages as they are. Of course some part of you realizes this is retarded and that raising the minimum wage is just a scam to increase inflation.
>>534079242price control cause scarcity>>534079286and that's why state control over money supply must be removed
>>534075415Yeah, she's gonna crash through the wall into full on abuela mode by this time next year.
Whats the dollar amount?
>>534077558Oh no we won’t have zogbots how terrible
>>534078852Nice Reddit meme. Lockdowns and shit tier responses to COVID were the fault of Democrats being contrarian faggots to anything Trump tried to do. He initially wanted to ban travel to and from China until COVID was dealt with. What did Democrats do? Start the "Hug a Chinese Persons" campaign.
>>534075246Maybe CEOs and investment corp managers should cut back and not buy their 5th yacht and tax haven villa in some European backwater.
>>534074789Trumpkin water carrying chuds for billionaires are undoubtedly against it. Its what do. Worrying about Big Mac prices and stupid shit like that. It's a worthwhile DOA effort because Republicunts have to oppose it before the midterms.
>>534079633Tripling it should be 21.50
>>534079290
>>534074789They should make OT 3x ones pay also. Either make OT worth working, or fix companies skeleton staffing (Which would mean better work/life balanc), but would either make blue collar guys rich or broke because a large majority make their money from OT
>>534079865Economic illiteracy is a hallmark of leftist dogma.
>>534080075Trump's economy is a hallmark of the Golden Age. Kek
>>534080075that and envy
>>534074877me neither. I'll just be making as much as a burger flipper instead of five times as much for performing a more challenging job
>>534074789Federal minimum wage is $7.25. 3 times that is $21.75/hr, or $43,500 per year working 40 hrs per week with 2 weeks vacation.If you are an adult American man and you only make $43,500 per year, you are a FUCKING FAILURE and a RETARD. It's nearly impossible to live a dignified life with that income, and you prick bastards are trying to argue that's TOO MUCH?No, it isn't too fucking much 50k should be the BARE FUCKING MINUMUM wage for full time work. Even with that you'll never own a home and most likely be forced to have roommates. Forget about retiring. And I hope you don't get sick either. What the fuck is wrong with you people? God damn capitalist pig boot lickers.
>>534080201Nice non-sequitur, Redditor.
yay inflation
>>534075720I can't wait to see Mike Johnson squirm on this one like a corporate little corporate worm.
>>534080428Whats a redditor?
>>534080393Buh if we raise dem minimum wages prices will go up!(they will go up anyway)
>>534075389ThisJust shoot CEOs if they do this. Problem solved.
>>534075700As above so below has nothing to do with the economy and everything to do with God.
we voted to raise our salaries that we steal from (you) while we grind your pay & QoL into dirt by importing endless 3rd World beaners & jeets. NOW SAY THANK YOU AND GO INVADE IRAN FOR US, GOY
>>534080393only sensible person in this thread. everyone crying muh inflation doesn't see that wages for the bottom 70% of americans have stagnated for years. the minimum wage needs to be increased so that those americans can pay for the difference that existing inflation has already caused. there's plenty of cases too where minimum wage increases haven't caused the drastic inflation that wall street predicts, it just means those rich fucks aren't making money every year
>>534080793Do prices go down when CEOs get shot? That seems optimistic.
>>534074789Fucking 100x baby!
>>534080957Prices may not go down but morale certainly improves!
>>534074789>raise min wage>everyone working gets kicked off aid for making to much>jobs don't hire you>government donates extra money to other countries GG thanks for playing
>>534074789Everyone should stop working at once. Would be hilarious and there wouldn't be a damn thing they could do about it
None of this matters as long as there is no demand to actually hire people because of infinity shitskins and outsourcing.
>>534080349The market will determine the value of your work, if the value of your work's value doesn't exceed the minimum legal rate than that is a market choice.
>>534076042The U.S. was also like 80% white back then.
>>534074789Fast food prices about to explode KEK
>>534081275>Le marketYou mean the one where the government either directly or indirectly controls 50% plus of all spending? LMFAO
>>534081297Ok communist. Tell me more about how the price of production determines prices and not demand.
>>534074789abolish minimum wagereduces supply of low paying jobshurting the bottom quintile of workers, ironicallythe govt should not distort the market by introducing a price flooron the cost of labour
>>534081297this and people will get less working hours. Same shit happened in California when they raised the min wage for fast food workers
>>534081348They would control less of the spending if money was moving faster at the consumer level.
>>534081384literally the opposite happened, ur retarded
>>534074789Sweet! So now that minimum wage is $21, me as a journeyman electrician should expect 70+, right? RIGHT??? I can't wait to be fully licensed and start my own business, I'm gonna charge you cucks 1k just to come take a looksie
>>534074789Weimar Zimbabwe economy coming soon
>>534074789Less than 1% of the workforce actually works for the federal minimum wage.
>>534081425lol what? people lost a ton of working hours. I knew plenty of people who had their hours cut. California's average prices for fast food is higher than the national average, especially after the hike
>>534076315>ai slop
>>534076820>Yeah turns out flooding the country with millions of immigrants, mostly illegals, isn't the best solutionYou did it too, you disingenuous cunt
>>534074974Christ on a stick! Poor people don't HAVE bootstraps to pull themselves upwards by!
>>534077255their jewish masters don't even want ro pay Americans a third of what they're worth. friendly reminder if wages kept up with inflation dems would be proposing minimum wage go up over 60 an hour.
>>534081530https://www.gov.ca.gov/2026/04/22/what-fox-news-wont-report-californias-fast-food-minimum-wage-increase-helped-730k-workers-with-zero-job-loss/ik this doesn't address your specific point, but i found the cited studies interesting. do u have any data on job hours?
>>534075685Communists deserve to be executed for being retards who will starve us all to death.
>>534074966Republicans can just pass it and then go into midterms with the slogan of "we increased your minimum wage 3x, democrats never did, coincidence? I THINK NOT"
>>534082737Ban farmers from exporting food out of the borders of this country and also make it illegal for them to throw away surplus. There's plenty of food for the country to never starve.
>>534079741This
>>534074789Is this another ploy from Stalin's guidebook?
>Triple minimum wage>Teachers, nurses, and other workers go to work min. wage jobs at walmart that are less stressfullol
>>534082849Why would they grow it though if they can't sell or dispose of it?
>>534074789>Not in power >"Woah look at this cool bill that would fix everything!">Inevitably dies in Congress >"Aww we tried, vote for us and we'll do it for real, we promise!"
>>534074966Even if it does pass who the hell can afford to pay someone at a grocery store 3x more with a 1% profit margin? If this were to pass then millions of minimum wage jobs would go away.
>>534083048They can sell it to their fellow citizens, and if they have too much that they can't sell it all, it will be seized and given to citizens who have food insecurity.
>>534074789they should tie the minimum wage to the average price of gold over the past year, updated once once a year
>>534083162Okay but they'll have to raise prices a lot to make up for all the money they'll lose from exports being banned. That will hit them really hard.
>>534083219Nope, price fixing.
>>534083238Why would they grow the food at all then if it is unprofitable for them to do so?
>>534074789yep this shit again>raise min wage price>every fucking thing that cost money goes up to a retard amount>raise min wage again>same thing happens again>raise it again>NEVER FUCKING ENDSGod the Dems are so much worse now, they offer no solution other than fucking over working class people. It's over, only UBI might save us or death.
>>534083271It is profitable, at the allowed price that they can freely sell to their fellow volk.
>>534083160If you are making 3x the money you were before, you can afford the food after the price hike it gets from the higher wages
>>534081275will it? is that the same market that's tripling min wage?oh wait, that's not a market doing that at all
>>534083324Okay but that price is going to have to be much higher like I said, given the huge money lost from exports being banned. That's the point.
>>534083390Nope, the price will remain at the level mandated by the government.
>>534081371I can never harm you by offering you a wage and you can never harm me by saying nosociety has determined most people are too ignorant to negotiate a wage, so they made it law that big daddy government will do it for themits the same thing with seat belt laws, I cant harm you by not wearing mine, you cant harm me by not wearing yours, a minority decided most americans are too stupid to make the choice on their own so its enforced by police
>>534074789The people that aren't worth $2,3,4,5,6,7 an hour are already on welfare. Why do they want to put everyone that is worth less than $20/hr on welfare?
>>534083430Then it won't be profitable for the farmers to grow and they will leave their fields fallow. Why is this impossible for your brown brain to comprehend?
>>534081893>Posts the most biased study imaginable directly from Newsoms websiteThat is so cringe just like everything new some. That study is the outlier >National Bureau of Economic Research (NBER) estimated a loss of approximately 18,000 jobs in California's fast-food sector relative to what would have occurred without the wage increase. Similarly, the Employment Policies Institute reported that the industry lost nearly 20,000 jobs between September 2023 and early 2025. https://www.nber.org/system/files/working_papers/w34033/w34033.pdf>Following California's $20 fast-food minimum wage law, studies from Northeastern University and UC Santa Cruz indicate a 12% drop in total labor hours and an 8% decrease in on-site staffing. https://news.northeastern.edu/2026/04/24/california-fast-food-pay-raise/Obviously the berkley (EXTREME BIAS) study just cherry picked data. Newsome really is scum. >Rubio's Coastal Grill closed 48 locations in California, citing the rising cost of doing business.>Smaller chains and single locations, such as M Pizza and Fosters Freeze, reportedly closed because they could not absorb the 25% increase in labor costs.>Industry surveys indicate that nearly 90% of restaurants plan to continue making cuts or raising prices to manage these costs in 2025You really can't hate liberals enough. >>534082737This
>>534080075Stupid shit like this is an order of magnitude less stupid than Trump's trade war or the energy crisis he got himself into.
>>534083481Then the traitors who place profit over people will be shot in the head and dumped in a mass grave, which frees up the farms to be made available to anyone who wants land and a job to feed their fellow workers.
>>534074789Only kikes and miggers are against this btw
>>534074789Raising minimum wage doesnt actually do anything for affordability, it will just make the middle class poor as everyone increases the price of everything to match the minimum wage increase, creating a wealth transfer to the already rich.
>>534074984Only dipshits are arguing with you. This is the answer. Companies have been getting away with fraud for 56 years at this point. It's no wonder everyone's drowning
>>534083601Seems like everything with communists always boils down to ordering people to do stuff and threatening to kill them if they refuse. It speaks to the inner psychology and personality of the communist very clearly.
>>534083556It's too exhausting to explain to you liberal retards how free trade got us Detroit, and how tariffs prevent Detroitification. Liberals really are economically illiterate. >Energy crisisYes there is a energy crisis, it's liberal's environmental policies kneecapping our extraction industries, North America has enough oil wealth that our streets should be paved with gold.>Free trade>Anti-energyAll this is the fault of liberal policies, and also the uni party, but mostly late 20th century early 21st neoliberalism.
>>534075389>The prices already went up. The wages didn't. Do midwits not understand shit like this?and what's to stop the le epic egg prices from just going up again if wages do
There's one easy way to fix the minimum wage and the cost of living in one fell swoop. Kick out 95% of the immigrants and their children in the country.
>>534075448>At least democrats are trying to find solutionsno they aren't. they only float bills like this when they know they wont pass. its why they never accomplish anything they campaign on, because if they did, they couldn't campaign on it anymore.
>>534076315>I think my ai that struggles to have 75% accuracy is right about economics
>>534083820Or simply force companies to pay their employees a % of their yearly profits as a bonus. Why should a company making billions pay their janitors the same amount as a company that is barely making a profit
>>534074873Make it infinity dollars per second that way everyone is rich :^)
>>534076895all food companies are owned by like six different corporations, and they all raised their prices at the same time. none of them have any incentive to ever lower them again.
>>534074984Then we take the private property right comrade?
>>534083906Because their labor is easily replaceable (unless we reduce our population). There's no point paying people what they're worth, when there's some brown third-worlder willing to work for less. Remove those people undercutting American wages and wages rise naturally. Why should Americans have to fight the entire world for a basic job?
>>534077230>deport all illegalsthat's the crux of the problem, isn't it? browns will gladly work for these shit wages because its still more they made in their dirt country. nobody with any amount of power has any interest in getting rid of them. they all live in gated communities where they never actually have to interact with browns.
>>534079155>people who make 20, 30, 40 an hourMinimum wage in the 1970s was equivalent to $60-70/hour today.
still too low.
>>534084108No wonder the 1970s are fondly remembered as an economic boom time.
>>534079438you are quickly entering a world where about 6000 jewish trillionaires "own" all of the robots and all of the land everywhere
>>534074984>What is price discovery>Hoarding wealthHAHAHAHAAHHAHAAHHA Buddy, you are acting like every retailer is operating as a monopoly. Let me guess, you think inflation comes from "price gouging?" HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAAHAHAHHAAHHAAHHAHAAHHAHAHAHAHAHAAHHA
>>534076820H1b1
>>534074984Nothing wrong with it, but it doesn't solve the problem of WHY minimum wage has to be brought higher. WHO is raising the cost of living? WHO is raising housing costs? WHO is raising the cost of food? We have more housing than ever before and more efficient farming methods, and yet prices keep going up, and they will continue to go up if all we do is raise wages.
>>534074789Who cares? The US is dead already. We're just waiting for the corpse to rot.
>>534074789Only morons think the minimum wage is a good thing
>>534084444you should go back then
>>534074789Finally so minimum wage is like $15 to $45? Bruh. Places in NJ it's like $18 to $22 already. That's great if they can raise it that high I can get a new car move out of my parents house in an apartment and eat food at 44. Democrats you might get my vote finally. Oh wait the Jews and Indians will raise the prices of everything because people have more money and we back from square one. Capitalism.
>>534074873This. That's a start, but it probably should be much higher, I don't know why it isn't at least $50/h, that solves poverty
>>534084058Force companies to pay the bonus and they are far more likely to hire competent people over some third worlder since they will have to pay them well anyway
>>534084703Why only $50 instead of more than that?
>>534074873It is so low anyways, it really wouldnt matter.
>>534085086So why not increase it 50x then if it is so low? Make it way higher. Why not?
>>534079155/Thread
>>534075559Our politicians prefer to fail because they gain capital from blaming and demonizing the other party and it carries no responsibility. Why fix Obamacare when it generates so much hate against the democrats? And potentially having your own solutiin suck so now you're the object of scorn? No thanks. Status quo it is.
>>534074789>oh look the goyim have the money to pay more expensive prices>raise the prices by 300% shlomo
>>534074873If you're wealthy why do you give a fuck?
>>534074873They can. They will tell you that is the number it should be, if it had kept up with inflation.
>>534074984> Every single person hoarding or taking money out of this country should be audited for fraud and funding foreign interests to subvert our country.Sounds good.https://freebeacon.com/democrats/southern-poverty-law-center-maintains-160-million-in-offshore-accounts/
>>534082758>Republicans can vote for a Dem bill and somehow get the credit for itYou are either retarded or the worst shill I have ever seen.
>>534074789(((CONGRESS)))
Moses Mordechai Levi, also known as Karl Marx, was the Jewish originator of Communism.
>>534074789It actually makes sense. With inflation being so high the only way to get the money out of the system is to give it to the people. If we have inflation with $7.25 then that means wages are too low.
>>534083160They will use AI to run the grocery store. Easy.
>>534086854Bernie is fucking based. He was one of the most popular candidates in the last decade. Half the country wants him to be president.
>>534081824we are introducing a bill to triple boots for the homeless
