The USA needs to split into blue and red states. I’m tired of sharing air with these right wing retards.

Wait times between offers have exploded, nearly five times higher than pre-law levels. Fewer deliveries mean the higher per-trip pay is spread across dramatically reduced volume. A National Bureau of Economic Research study confirmed that lower tips and fewer orders completely offset the mandated base pay increases.https://www.washingtonpolicy.org/publications/detail/the-seattle-payup-tax-is-a-failed-experiment-hurting-workers-restaurants-and-consumers
>>537804518>YOU'RE EITHER LIVING IN POVERTY OR ELSE I'LL HIRE ILLEGALSWasn't the point of trump to deport those illegals or?
>>537804518It sounds like the business owners are the actual problem in this scenario. So the State -- who issues money and can never be outbid for anything if it decides to get involved -- should simply muscle them out of business and employ the same workers to do the same job they were already doing.
>>537803902It's clearly the state of entrepreneurs and businessmen, where the spirit of old America is still around. Why would they vote to increase pay to their wagies?
>>537803902The people voting no are the ones who already make 15+ an hour and aren't thrilled at the prospect of their purchasing power getting decimated because poors want mo digits in dey account. CA already admits its 21 an hour burger flipper shit was a blunder. Yeah, OK is 50th in education, but the people making that point shouldn't be.

>>537803902Min wage increases just mean teenagers at their first job and Laqueesha the diversity hire make more than they deserve and prices go up for everyone.
>>537804562No, it's definitely not true. This propaganda is paid for by the delivery apps themselves because they want to pay drivers less and rile those drivers up against the customers for not tipping.Instead of everyone asking why gig delivery work can't be handled through the postal service? I mean, DoorDash/Uber Eats don't have any vehicle fleets. They just have the software that routes deliveries -- and the postal service already has this, too. You can already use 3rd party navigation like Waze, so you don't need the one provided by the apps themselves.

Coincidentally, he was accused of rape a few months ago.

>>537804882Just have the government build and own the housing. That undercuts the price gougers at the source.You keep operating under this assumption that we need to accommodate privateers, when we actually don't. We're the ones doing all of the work. The argument is that these "private sector" people have the money, so we have to put up with their conditions for employment and everything else that entails.But -- the government has an infinite supply of money. It can never run out of it. So the government can turn around and pay the same workers who are already doing all of the work to do the same jobs that need doing.
>>537804844No, like Rockefellers.
>>537804844Why do people whine about the Rothschilds'? They were cramped up into a small living space in Germany and they weren't allowed to move freely. Then they understood that they will need to play the game, win it and rise above of everyone else so they wouldn't be oppressed anymore. And how did they do that? They didn't control politics, they didn't control banks or firms, they control CURRENCY aka. money which all people use. Money is energy, and by controlling that, they control everything.
>>537803902Minimum wage is not and NEVER has been intended to be some kind of baseline pay standard. Minimum wage is just the point where the government steps in and says it's unconscionable to let someone agree to work for such low pay.Less than 2% of the US workforce actually earns minimum wage, because the fair market wages for even the lowest tier of jobs are already significantly higher than minimum wage almost everywhere.The real reason Democrats care about minimum wage has nothing to do with the few people who actually earn minimum wage, it's because a lot of union contracts are based on multiples of minimum wage. They are really just trying to give a kickback to the fat cat union bosses earning six figures in exchange for their union voting for Democrat politicians.

>>537804426All collective bargaining agreements and wage laws must include automatic, legally binding raises tied directly to the real rise in the cost of basic consumer goods (food, housing, fuel). Inflation metrics cannot be trusted to the bourgeois government's cooked statistics. Instead, popular committees of workers, trade unions, and consumers must independently monitor prices and dictate the required wage adjustments. These wage increases are funded directly by liquidating the massive hoards of corporate profit, not by raising prices on consumers. Because quite literally, the common workers pay is exploited by surplus labor to compromise surplus value.

>>537803902If minimum wage rises by a dollar, all other wages above that should also rise by a dollar, or else labor becomes devalued and scarce. This results, of course, in inflation.

Places like Walmart should be minimum $20 federally. Mom and pop should have a lower minimum. That will mean more skilled work will have to increase wages as well. This must also be paired with rent control and abolition of private equity buying housing, and forcing them to sell to citizens what they already scooped up.I just want White men to own things and have children shill, and no ammount of screaming "commie" at us will change that.

>>537806408Or Canadian with downs
>>537804640You are retarded, just thought I state that first. You are looking at the problem of affordability as entirely an income problem. Our parents and grandparents made less money then we do, the issue is the costs are too damn high. If we kicked out all the immigrants and stopped/audited all the retarded social programs that are being abused by lesser races then we would be able to afford property and food. TLDR for the other retards, kick out all the immigrants and TND will fix pretty much everything currently wrong in America, Canada and pretty much every other western nation.
>>537803902I dont live in OK but I agree with the vote. I just dont think minimum wage should increase anywhere because people that make minimum are societal pieces of shit and deserve nothing. Fuck em.
>>537806016Small business owners will kick and scream over AI taxation on big businesses and redistributing the money because it's "socialism". Large supermarkets and McDonald's use kiosks and self-checkout; they are already making a mint off automation, which they reinvest right into the business to avoid taxes. You cannot reason with small business owners; they are inherently more anti-consumer than the big companies. They don't get audited nearly as much, so they are more likely to pay under the table or avoid health insurance. The big companies can take the hit.All anyone has to do is tax larger companies on automation/AI, give to the smaller ones that are definitely not using it (a server still needs to operate a POS system), and use that money as grants to allow businesses to pay their employees more money in order to compete against an increasing minimum wage that McDonald's can afford to pay. The money would be adjusted based on competition in the area. If you've only got 10 Mcdonald's in a district instead of 100, then theres limited grant money that can be worked with, therefore, it adjusts to the job market perfeclty. If there's more demand, more McDonalds or Burger Kings will be built, and therefore, more taxes which convert to grant money. Not like it matters since money is fake, but you get the idea.I have brought up this idea to small business owners, and yet I have not heard a single coherent argument against it. They are either too stupid to understand it and call it socialism, so they won't vote for it, or they will say that "that will discourage hard work and people wanting to own a bigger business". As if owning 5 McDonald's and hiring almost no one to work them (Kiosks and drive-through only) is discouraging hard work for anyone but the owner, who has all the money they need, while the employees are cycled out and can't afford anything with 3 roommates in a major city.

>>537806845Spic Fuentes is a tranny. Don't care what she thinks about anything.
>>537806360https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_United_States_cities_by_populationThe top 40 US cities have only 10% of the population, the next 60 have half that again. The next 250 cities have around another 10%. 348 cities with a total population of about 80-85 million (25%). I'd hardly consider Edmond, Oklahoma to be a city anyway, but yeah it does have over 100k people. Most Americans live in townships with less than 100k people.
>>537806774Reading comprehension, when did I say small businesses aren't hostile to AI? The whole point is that they aren't adopting AI, and they will hire people, which is a benefit to the economy while Walmarts/McDonalds won't hire people and use machines instead? So you tax Walmart/Mcdonalds on this, which is exactly what I said. Retarded boomer once again is unable to comprehend the argument and provide a coherent counter. Proved my point, good job. A nigger would understand this better.
Increasing the minimum wage doesn't work because they also raise taxes.Just lower taxes.
>>537806777>the post office is already fuckedIt's really not. 1) it's "financial problems" are illusory and created by politicians who want to see their routes and distribution centers sold off to private owners and 2) gig delivery is a natural extension of capabilities both the post office and the population already possess. Nothing about the general model would need to change, it could still work on a contractor basis - just the postal service doesn't have shareholders it needs to satisfy and thus suppress driver pay.

>>537803902Why do u care? u don't even live there. you're a reddit bot
>>537807191My point, in the first sentence, is that you, anti-socialist small business owners, unironically suck so much upper corporate cock that a tax on Walmart/McDonald's that would be redistributed to you, which would be in your own best interest, literally causes you to seethe and not even hear the argument in its entirety "because it's socialism". Which is what you just did. You all come up with the same excuses. In reality, you want to be the next Walmart or McDonalds. You do not care about your workers enough because in 20 years, you might own 10 chains, and you can maybe sniff the crumbs of the 1%'s pussy while your employees barely make enough to live. Converting large business AI and Automation directly to grants while increasing the minimum wage would be beneficial to everyone. Small businesses would be able to afford paying people more, and large businesses can take the hit or would have to hire more people to avoid an AI tax. It's more people working for more money.I know that you didn't need to read when you got a job to take care of your wife (who worked part-time), car, 3 kids, house with 4 rooms, and your application to interview rate was 1 to 1, but try to actually use critical thinking. Still waiting on a coherent response, btw.
>lol
>>537807252I am not sure that this is necessarily a bad trade.The argument would be that you want people to work, so you don't tax something you want people to do. It follows from the logic that taxes are not needed for revenue (now, this is not true at the State level in the US because states do not create money) and are just for controlling inflation, redistributing income, driving the money, and modifying behavior.
What's crazy about Oklahoma is that even the natives are hardcore red voters
>>537805366That FDR quotes describing minimum wage as a living wage are completely out of context and were referring to the minimum wage in the National Industrial Recovery Act of 1933, which was found to be unconstitutional. The actual minimum wage in the US was only intended to stop the proliferation of sweatshops that were taking advantage of women and children trying to earn a supplemental income for their family, it was never intended to be a baseline living wage or be high enough for a family's primary/sole income. >Surely couldn't be the minimum wage to live off of.It does not mean that and never has meant that. It has always just meant the absolute minimum wage that is legally allowed, where people aren't even allowed to work for less because it would be tantamount to slavery.
>>537804640If your labor only produces $10 an hour and the government says your employer has to pay you $15, do you think your employer is going to lose $5 an hour or eliminate your position?Even if they decide on the former for ideological reasons, eventually they will run out of money and will be forced to fire you.If minimum wage laws actually made people wealthier, we'd set it at eleventy trillion dollars an hour and never worry about privation again.
>>537807975The great thing is that the government, as the issuer of the currency, can ALWAYS afford to buy any and all unemployment in the economy.
>>537804426>>537805408it's just ends up being inflation, i keep telling you retards, you must recognize the reason why a wage increase are necessary in the first place, otherwise all you get is more inflationbut don't worry i can tldr all of that tooITS THE FUCKING JEWITS FUCKING JEWRYIT WAS ALWAYS THE FUCKING JEWS YOU DUMB MOTHERFUCKERS
>>537807730>I am not sure that this is necessarily a bad trade.I'm sorry its not that most, or even just some people can just work a few to lots of hours of overtime a day and their income goes to above $320,000 Anon.It's a fucking horrible trade, everyone near the State Border will be doing all their big shopping and consumption in neighboring States, and the projected State sales tax rate of 13% (There is also local) will have to balloon to make up for that.It will be a boom for areas bordering populated areas of the state.Even Rural areas that have to drive far already to go to a costco or something, will just drive a little further in the opposite direction to go to Arkansas or wherever.Missouri eliminated some Tax a few years ago and thought it would only be a $100 million budget deficit, and it turned out to be a $500 million deficit.

Y'know, kinda like the original Utopia.

>>537809271>That is called UBI and it's at least a more honest approach to transfer payments.No, it isn't called UBI. UBI means you get money just for existing. What I am explaining is that the government, since it creates money, can always afford to hire and employ resources that the private sector has already decided it doesn't want to use.You're creating fictional scenarios in your head right now to conform with your ideological priors.
>>537804840That there is NO FOSS delivery app is how I know there are very very few serious individuals.The actual business of growing DD/GH/UE is marketing to restaurants to capture them, even sending drivers to your store when you aren't signed up.

So we skip.
>>537809821Are you retarded? The government can creates the money. It is the source of the money. If something is 1) for sale 2) priced in the currency it issues, then it can always afford it. If it makes a firm decision on something, it can literally never be outbid for something that is for sale and priced in its own currency. This is not complicated.I have no idea what you're talking about. Nobody has any "buying power" until the government spends the money into existence first.

>>537810337>why would you personally walk across a hot parking lot to put the cart in the cart return stall when there are carts all over the place?Because its the right thing to do and if no one does it then eventually no one can use the parking lot. Also technology was supposed to take care of it eventually, the machine mines the metals, the machines forges them, the machine makes them into parts, the machine makes the toaster, the machine delivers it to your house, the machine pays for it all.

In Seattle you can easily make over $80,000 a year in an entry level job.
>>537810583So successful they had to pay people to make pro-WPA propaganda with exactly the kind of CalArts style you'd expect from a bunch of proto-commies.The New Deal didn't get us out of the Depression. Winning WWII did.
>>537805041>just let the government own everything and expand their lower to every facet of your life>this won't go wrong at all.
>>537805438>>537810771the point is any idiot can do it kek. those retards can't do the other work that actually make the country money. any idiot can do physical labor
>>537811177They don't need to own everything. They are just making use of things the private sector has already said it doesn't want and has no use for.
>>537803902>their ownminimum wage is what libshits make
>>537803902>let's kill what companies we have left for the entry level not flipping burgers and fries to force 15 dollars an hr on small businesses in a rural state with many people on the verge of poverty Gee what a fucking megamind take to see why it was voted down.
>>537803902They’re Christian. What’d you expect
>>537803902trying to improve the common mans life is somethIng only gay communist homosexual democrats want to do
>>537803902Was that the ONLY thing they were voting on?
>>537812346Literally yes, it was a stand alone ballot question that was a single pargraph in full and included no other changes whatsoever.Full text of the thing they voted on: https://ballotpedia.org/Oklahoma_State_Question_832,_$15_Minimum_Wage_Initiative_(June_2026)
>>537803902I imagine they just looked at other states that raised minimum wage out of nowhere to $15 and then fucking collapsed. They made the right fucking call. I wish our fucking retards did.>t. Missourian

>>537810014>employers must recoup their marginsNo, employers will simply be poorer or they’ll be hung from trees
>>537810486>hyperboleThey didn’t propose raising it to 10 trillion dollars per hour. They proposed like $15 an hour which is still a little kid summer job wage lmao
>>537811193>work that actually makes the country money >implying physical labor is not valuable This 10 year old has never heard of resource extraction
>>537815623ok, but why not 10 trillion an hour?
>>537804338Have you ever considered that there shouldn't be a minimum cost of living? You can't just mandate that every wage is above 20 an hour, that necessitates massive state systems of control.How many jobs do YOU have? Likely zero or one. How many jobs do you RELY on? Dozens a day. So why mandate that life is more expensive?
>>537815623It should be 0 for citizens and negative minimum wage for foreigners (they can pay money to work in America)
>>537812261The common man's life doesn't improve when slaves are being paid twenty+ an hour to pick cotton. Forcing higher wages only leads to higher commodity prices
>>537816478>Forcing higher wages only leads to higher commodity pricesNot if you legalize murder too.
>>537804271>Without American retarded vote system trump would have lostYou think that you, a 75 IQ fecaloid scammer, knows better than the Founders of the US? This country was never meant to be a direct democracy.
>>537804539if the cities were all nuked the rural areas would all die from waterborne disease in a few months
>>537816478>Forcing higher wages only leads to higher commodity pricesNot necessarily. As a general principle, producers are already charging the highest prices they can get away with that maximize their total profit. Raising price results in a decrease in quantity sold with the magnitude depending on the slope of the demand curve. Goods frequently get sold below cost and businesses can operate at a loss (for a time), so we know that it's not a hard and fast rule that all costs get passed to consumers.If a good has an inelastic demand curve (e.g., insulin shots) then costs can be easily passed on. But optional goods and services like some specific brand of ketchup with many substitutes would lose more money in sales than they save on wages by raising price.Interestingly enough, the supply curve for labor is highly inelastic. Micro econ theory predicts a drop in employment level when the minimum wage goes up. But studies have shown there is almost no reduction, which makes sense because businesses need a certain quantity of labor to operate, and they are already minimizing that to the greatest extent possible, just like they are maximizing prices.So TL;DR, not all prices would or could go up because of a minimum wage hike, and employment levels generally don't go down by much if at all.
