Why do the democrats hate the working class?

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?

Prosperity Through Lower Wages!​

I like it. Run with it for the next election.
 
This is the same ridiculous school of "thought" and I use that term loosely that has somehow convinced the simple minded that the middle class would do better if they had their taxes raised while decreasing the taxes for the rich. Amazing that people believe this kind of crap.

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..

Keep the minimum wage low enough and the worker can't even afford to buy one of those cheeseburgers

and so the price of cheeseburgers will actually decrease. Derp.
 
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.

That approach worked really well in E.Germany and is doing equal marvels in France.

Why do people think they can protect their way to prosperity? Competition is good. Competition has brought us the least expensive highest lifestyle in history. Remember when a long distance phone call was over $1 a minute? That was protectionism.
People get paid what they deserve.

Who's proposing a rise in taxes for the middle class, dimwit? The BUsh tax cuts cut taxes at ALL income levels.
 
.#1-Pub crappe

Living wage ferchrissake. Since Pubs have refused one for 50 yearrs, since the good old days fcs, HOW THE FUCK DO YOU KNOW??!- Brainwashed idiot....duh LOL!

so who gets to decide what a "living wage" is?
 
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?

It's all they've got. The higher min wage has resulted in starting wages of nothing. If NubblyPubic were starting out today he would not be able to work for 1.25/hr because that job wouldn't exist. With no job skills he would sit around unemployed. Which is exactly what 40% of black teenagers are doing.
 
I think the price of food and energy should increase dramatically so that the oil companies and farmers can make a fortune.

And I think all middle and lower class wage earners should have to take, at least, a 50% cut in wages.

Then I think the middle and lower class wage earners should have their checks direct deposited into the bank accounts of the energy and food companies. Who in turn would send you a very small balance credit card to buy food and energy with.

IF you don't have enough money to eat or get to work, your fault. To bad. Shoulda made a fortune.

What a vision for American prosperity. Working to eat, drive and heat.

BTW. After doing this, the ultra rich would pay no income tax. 0%. They are the "job creators" and as such are MUCH more important that the rest of us.
