“Raise the Wage Act”, (H.R. 582) would have increased most USA’s wage-earning families’ incomes.

TNHarley, regarding the minimum wage rate and inflation of the U.S. currency's value:
The minimum rate’s proportional effect upon a product’s price is dependent upon the proportion of the price that’s attributable to direct or indirect labor, and the proportional differences between those labor costs that are attributable to higher or lower wage rates. (The minimum rate bolsters other wage rates, but it much more beneficial to lower rather than higher wage rate earners.)

Because a fraction multiplied by another fraction produces a consequential product lesser than the two multiplied factors, the minimum wage rate has never been among the primary drivers of U.S. dollar’s inflation. Any proportional increases of aggregate prices that could be attributable to increases of the federal minimum wage rate are proportionally extremely much less than the increase of aggregate wage incomes that could also be attributable to that rate increase.

Respectfully, Supposn

(The minimum rate bolsters other wage rates, but it much more beneficial to lower rather than higher wage rate earners.)

Prove it.

Show how much wages would increase at the $100,000 level, if the Federal Minimum Wage
went from $7.25 up to $8.25. Do the same for the $50,000 level. Thanks!!!

First he said it bolsters other wage rates and it will. When we finally embarrass politicians enough to get it done it's going to be at a 4 figure rate. ($10 plus). Those making $10 now will also get a boost. Whatever wage it gets boosted to will get a boost also. Does it reach those making $100,000? No.

But you knew this.

What happens to workers who add $8/hour of value when the minimum wage is $12/hour?

They get $12 because that's the least they need to keep up with rent and what have you.

What you need for rent has nothing to do with the value you add.

In a society it does. If there is a need for a job they deserve to be able to survive.

Sounds like society should pay the wage, not the business owner.

Whichever. Businesses pay taxes also.

We need a rise in the minimum wage but it also must be noted that the Democrats had eight years under Obama and did absolutely nothing in this regard.
In right wing fantasy, you can just make stuff up as you go along and still believe you are Right.

The Minimum Wage Fairness Act (S. 1737) is a bill that would amend the Fair Labor Standards Act of 1938 (FLSA) to increase the federal minimum wage for employees to $10.10 per hour over the course of a two-year period.[1] The bill was strongly supported by President Barack Obama and many of the Democratic Senators, but strongly opposed by Republicans in the Senate and House.[2][3][4]--https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Minimum_Wage_Fairness_Act#Background

I addressed this already. There is no way the GOP would have turned down a minimum wage hike in return for Obama extending the Bush tax cuts (which he extended). There is also no way they could have blocked a rise in Obama first two years.

Obama did nothing.
 
I'll make anyone a deal. We end the Federal Reserve and I'll quit sticking up for the poor.


Why should we end the Federal Reserve?
How is making unskilled workers permanently unemployable "sticking up for the poor"?

Trump said we had full employment so I have no idea what you are talking about. The work still needs done whether it's $8 or $12.
