Why do the democrats hate the working class?

[Liberty]

A higher minimum wage doesn't mean people will get paid more...it means people that the company chooses to keep employed will get paid more and more will get fired. These fired people will leech off of the democrat lamented welfare state and create more democrat voters...

My question is...why can workers not understand they are being played?

If you want to talk-about people being "played", why do Teabaggers insist-upon rushing to defend the people who....

....CRASHED OUR ECONOMY?

"Steve Kroft talks to the bank examiner whose investigation reveals the how and why of the spectacular financial collapse of Lehman Brothers, the bankruptcy that triggered the world financial crisis."​

Hmmm...one reply but I do not see the post. Must only mean my good friend Mr. Shaman who I have on block probably said something stupid, off topic, and about Bush. I rest my case.

Protectionism for American working class jobs would be a good start, competing directly with the Chinese workforce is ruining us.

So you want government to step in to make hiring decisions for businesses so businesses can not fire people?

Nope, Use whatever taxes or tariffs are necessary to make it clear that we will not reward any business or person in any way for moving or staying off-shore. If we are going to have corporate socialism then make it work for us.

Jobs are coming back now, China no longer so cheap. ABC just now...

 

[rightwinger]

A company who needs ten minimum wage workers to function does not hire more workers if the minimum wage decreases

Nor do they fire workers when the minimum wage goes up

Companies make money off of every employee.

Living wage based on what? Geography? Family size? Location? Sounds like a bureaucratic nightmare. How much is a living wage to you, personally?

Then why wouldn't Democrats be motivated to lower gas prices NOW instead of blaming the Working Class for high consumption????

total BS. Food service workers are hired based on demand and paid the least amount they will work for usually by the hour.

To review: Ridiculous Pub myths!

Stooopid ...

A lower minimum wage or, as the Rs want, NO minimum wage will mean a drop in all wages. And a hell of a lot more money for the 1%.

I was thirteen when I entered the "working force" and I made a whole whopping $1.25 an hour. Do you really want to go back to that?

pubs have always fought against paying a livable wage to the working class and the working poor. Its simply incredible that those very people, the working and poor class are helping to cut their own throats.

If you idiots don't care about yourselves, how about you give a moment's thought to their children and their children's children. Won't you please use your heads on this one?

Care to address the economic nitty gritty (such as what the doctor laid out in the video) or are conjecture and emotionally charged personal anecdotes your only response?

Minimum wage hurts not only workers, because their withholding taxes go up too, but so does the price of living, for everyone, including that wage earner, who will be paying more for their cheeseburgers, etc..
