10 nations have higher min. wages than the US

This is figured as after taxes, by the way.

This country has the best minimum wage in the world

America is kind of a joke.


Why should the filthy ass government ever be in the business of dictating wages?

That should always be between the employer and employee. The stupid politicians, who are corrupt assholes elected by special interest groups, should not be allowed to set wages. That is for the labor market to determine.

The joke is that we are stupid to allow the government to interfere in business like that. No wonder we didn't even have a dismal 3% GDP growth for the last eight years.
 
The lowest cost of living? Yeah, no we don't.

1st - I did not say the lowest cost of living

2nd - excessive minimum wages have crippled Seattle and have been destructive to the very people you think you are helping everywhere they have been implemented in the States

love your sig baw

and excessive minimum wages always wind up forcing lower wage earners to pull less hours & effectively kill the chances for many high schoolers to find part time work

Well here's a fun fact for you: among developed nations, the US has one of the highest poverty rates.

What qualifies for poverty in the US is FAR from what it is elsewhere. Try again.

Among developed nations it's the same thing. You try again.

Yes, and under Obama it increased along with decreased family income, increased welfare, tremendous debt, increased income disparity and dismal economic growth.

Obama allowed millions of illegals to flood in that put many of them on the welfare rolls and that drove down wages in the labor market. Then the government raised minimal wages resulting in less jobs and less hours.

Dumbass Libtard economics.

More than half of all states have a MW that is higher than the federal MW
The MW in my state is higher than any of those countries but please don't move to my state but rather move to another country because quite frankly the last thing my state needs is another fucking whiner

if by "poverty rate" you mean people that survive primarily with government assistance; yet, still have cars, air conditioning, cell phones & cable TV - the yes, I agree

good point
 
we have a military those countries enjoy.
No, they don't. Give up on this "America is exceptional" bullshit.

Then you scat. we don't need you.
perhaps a tour in the military or a day as a cop might refresh his attitude.
why would we want to be anything but exceptional. i'll bet he wishes he hadn't started this thread.

even people who make minimum wage are exceptional, because they can improve and climb the success ladder, socialist countries are stagnant, i've told bernie sanders this many times, does he get it ?.....crickets

an exceptional country will let people post any kind of thread they like.

Oh, boy you sure showed me!
we don't mean to pile on, but people want a high minimum wage so the don't have to work very hard, and because it's a gateway to socialism.
