Biden to double minimum wage

[BasicHumanUnit]

So the employer is going to pack in?

Hopefully not

but they often reduce the number of employees they hire

sometimes that means slower service, sometimes it means automation

but it always means good news for the democrat party

That is anyway the case.

Do you care if private companies are forced out of business?

many libs dont care at all

Small business is run by a lot of Americans.......American Man BAD

They want all business run by Globalists and Elites.

 

[Mac-7]

They want all business run by Globalists and Elites.

There is a lot of truth to that

small business leans toward trump and is not easily controlled by the government

After all that fat cat socialism under the Blob, Biden has some real useful present for the populace: An increase of the federal minimum wage by more than 100 %.

Biden minimum wage proposal could lift more than 1 million workers out of poverty

Federal minimum wage has been frozen at $7.25 for more than a decade, the longest period without a raise since 1938.

Something tells me you have never been a small business owner.

Happy employees are more effective and reliable.

How happy are those employees going to be when a gallon of milk goes up to $7 and a loaf of bread goes up to $6? Or maybe when rent for an apartment goes from $1,350 a month to $2,600 a month?

I hope he does it. The impact will be devastatingly bad. Those who think that minimum wage workers are suddenly going to have double the buying power are either ignorant or stupid.

Know what? Ask your boss to lower your wage.

Well, I don't have a boss but, if I did, he legally wouldn't be able to if my pay were federally mandated.

Aside from that, I have no idea why you thought your comment might qualify as intelligent input...

So it is only the others whose income must be very small to maintain the economy, not yours?

Your missing my point completely.

Do you believe the prices of consumer goods (groceries, clothing, auto parts, electronics, etc) will remain the same if the minimum wage is doubled?

No, but minimum wagers aren´t the only customers.

No, but minimum wagers aren´t the only customers.

Just as they aren't now.

Let's try this another way. How about you explain your reasoning behind your belief that doubling the minimum wage is a good idea...

That is self-evident.

I don't know your reasoning. I can sit here for days and tell you why it's a bad idea. Surely you possess the ability to spend a quick few moments explaining why you think it's a good idea, right? That's how discussions work.

Thus far, all I see is someone who's afraid to answer a question.

Why do you think doubling the minimum wage would be a good thing?

[irosie91]

Biden and his socialist team will have us in another great depression within 6 months....they have no idea how a economy works.

They know how it works for THEM. To the tune of 1.5 billion and counting.

The Elitist economy works quite well for the .1 percent like the bidens, Pelosis, McConnells etc etc etc

I don't know how economy works and would not know even if I did college like AOC-----IF I did economics
101 thru Ph-D I would STILL not understand economics because I have trouble with CHAOS THEORY. What I know for sure is that doubling
minimum wage leads to CHAOS and misery for all---
except, as noted, THEM

Do you care about people suffering 7.25?

Who are the workers earning $7.25 per hour?

Please share with us what the typical household annual income is where one worker earns the minimum wage?

 

[Mac-7]

Do you care about people suffering 7.25?

I do care

if we stop illegal migration and deport all the undocumented workers and there will be higher wages for Americans

Why do you think doubling the minimum wage would be a good thing?

I already explained it. It will make them buy more stuff, thus boosting the economy. And of course, it is better for them. Once you are on 7.25, you will agree with me.

Why don´t you tell that the employees that you rush to defend here??

 

[Mac-7]

Why don´t you tell that the employees that you rush to defend here??

you are not making any sense and I cant tell what you are trying to say

 

[Bleipriester]

you are not making any sense and I cant tell what you are trying to say

Because I wanted to say employers...

 

[Mac-7]

Because I wanted to say employers...

I will tell anyone

but I am talking to you and you are the one pushing for the higher min wage

 

[Canon Shooter]

Why do you think doubling the minimum wage would be a good thing?

I already explained it. It will make them buy more stuff, thus boosting the economy.

But it won't.

Right now, you get paid $7.50 an hour. You can buy a gallon of milk for, let's say, $3.49.

Well, when the government mandates that minimum wage goes up to $15, the retailer has to raise his price for that gallon milk. Why? Well, for starters, because they kid who used to stock the shelves at $7.50 and hour is now making double that. The retailer isn't going to simply absorb that extra $7.50, he's going to pass that on to you, the consumer, and there's not a single reason in the world why he shouldn't.

Furthermore, though, the retailer is also now paying more for that gallon of milk. If he buys a gallon of milk from a dairy, the guy running the milking machine is now making $15 an hour when he used to be making only $9 an hour. The dairy owner isn't going to absorb that extra $6 an hour, he's going to pass that on to his customers (ie: the retailer). The company that makes the bottles the milk goes into, likewise has to raise their prices, as does the companies which ship and deliver the milk, all because everyone is going to do everything they can think of to mitigate the negative impact of the higher operating costs on their bottom line.

I haven't had a minimum wage job since the Carter administration. Back then, minimum wage was $2.65 an hour. Man, I'd have thought doubling it to $5.30 an hour would've been great! Why? Because back then, when I was 16 years old, all I cared about was how much cash I had in my wallet, and not so much about what that cash could buy.

And of course, it is better for them. Once you are on 7.25, you will agree with me.

What people need to lose is the unfounded expectation that a person should be able to support a family of four on a minimum wage job. That's stupid. If you're married with kids, and you have a minimum wage job, you seriously fucked something up along the way...

It won´t double the prices. We are talking about 1,3 million people.
