Minimum wage is already “livable”

[Dragonlady]

The only possibility of civil war in this country is when the Democrats finally admit they are Communists. I have nothing against people having children as long as they can support them. But having children you can't support and footing the bill to the taxpayers is what I'm against. As far as getting screwed over, the only people that did that in my life is government on several occasions, especially when that Kenyan lawn jockey was in the White House.

People come here from all over the world to have the opportunity we were born with. Our people were tricked by the Communists by being able to live off taxpayers instead of young healthy people working. No pride, no sense of self-satisfaction, no challenges. If you are met with the least challenge, email government and they'll send you a form on how they will take care of your problem instead of taking the initiative of doing it yourself.

Why would the Democrats admit to being something they're not?

You don't want immigration, and you're not replacing your population. People aren't having babies because they can't afford them. If you haven't replaced yourself, you're simply a drain on the public purse once you cease working.

People come from all over the world because the USA is an easy country to get into. You sell education, medical care, and tourism. Most of your illegal immigration is not coming across from the Southern Border. It's coming through your airports, with people overstaying their visas. The people who are coming to the USA "from all over the world" aren't white people from first world countries. They're people escaping violence, famine, and persecution.

You're the one being tricked. It's easy. Republicans just appeal to your racism and belief that Democrats are communists. If you're stupid and gullible enough to refer to President Obama as a "Kenyan lawn jockey", and dumb enough to vote for Donald Trump, twice, you'll fall for anything but the truth.

You are just trying to support your fellow commies. It's real simple. Go to the US Communist Party website and read their agenda. Then compare that to the Democrat party agenda in our country and even the Canadian one. You're going to find very few differences. Then do a search on who they supported in the Trump/ Hillary race, the DumBama/ McCain race, the DumBama Romeny race.

Now I know how commies usually respond. You're going to say "Oh, those are not real Communists!" If that's what you believe, fine. I have another site for ya. It's the Mark Levin show. He reads from the Communist Manifesto, and then reads the Declaration of Independence. He gives examples how today.....yes today........the Democrat party is following their top ten agendas to takeover the US and their violations against the Declaration.

But you have one thing correct, and that is the Democrat party is the anti-white party. Their main goal is to wipe out the white race for the first time in US history. Once we are the minority, they will have a single party government forever. Only a few years later will they inform their dupes they've been Communist for a number of years. We have 7.5 billion people on this planet, and I'd be willing to bet half of them would love to get into the US. Where are we going to put them? Are you willing to take a billion or two?

Sure, minimum wage is "livable" - so long as the state subsidizes your existence.

Nope.As explained, it’s livable if one shares housing with others. The working poor, or new college grads with low starting salaries, have Been doing that for generations. I did it. My father did it. My grandfather did it.

It‘s only in recent years, with the leftists advancing the entitlement mentality, that it’s even been considered a bad thing to have roommates. Now, they think every high school grad flipper burgers is entitled to his own apartment.

Accidents or carelessness?

Not sure what you’re referring to, since I have that poster on ignore, but a guess - is it about pregnancy? In 99% of the cases, an unplanned pregnancy is due to being sloppy about birth control, not a failure of the birth control.

You seem to assume everywhere has public transportation, which is not really the case

She underestimated public transit costs as well, which in NYC where she is, is $29 bucks a week with a metro pass....

She also didn't take out payroll taxes from the gross income....

No budget for clothes, shoes, coats etc either....

I had several hundred dollars left over, and that covers clothes. And you don’t need to buy clothes and shoes and costs every month, either. I still have my winter coat from 2010.

And it isn’t fair to compare transit costs in New York. They already have a $15 minimum wage to compensate for the high costs of that city. (And who ever said I live in NY?] But in regular places, where people earn at least $10 hr, they can triple up with other low-wage earners, as people have done for generations, and cover their living costs.

And I did take out payroll taxes.

The fact remains that a $10/hr a wage worker, with no skills or education, can get by renting a room in someone’s house. If they don’t like that, they need to acquire job skills that makes them worth more on the open market.

Not to throw water on your fire, but you also assume there are enough people out there with rooms in their homes they are willing to rent to strangers. Not sure there are as many of them as you might think. In many areas the rental market is far tighter than the home buying market.

Another excuse. There are so many rooms for rent around here that they are hard to fill.

And if they can’t find one near their Target or wherever they work, then they need to apply for a job where there IS a room to rent. Stop acting like these people are helpless idiots.

 

[Harpy Eagle]

Really, that is odd as I just looked and could not find very many around here, and most were in the 1000 dollar a month range.

Even rental houses here are normally rented within 48 hours of when they open up, if they last that long.

If it is not too much to ask, but what state do you live in?

I think you are the one treating them that way, you just assume they are all lazy fucks that do not try and better themselves.

Life is not as neat and pretty as you pretend.

Never said life is easy. But for those motivated, it’s livable even if working poor. Also esca from poverty if you make the right decisions.

And as far as people who cry poverty and then refuse to take any opportunity to better themselves, yes….the fault is theirs. Haven‘t you learned that your way - just handing out money to people who haven’t earned it - does nothing to correct poverty?

Finally, you refuse to acknowledge that ANY of the poor people who live off welfare and do nothing to improve could possibly be just lazy bums. (I don’t use the F word - may I remind you I‘m a lady.)

Please find a post from me saying we should just hand people money....you keep putting words in my mouth because I do not agree things are as neat and simple as you make them out to be.

This is the problem in this country , everything is black and white, us vs them. If someone does not agree 100% with you they must be from the "other side", Due to partisan politics much of the country has lost the skill of seeing nuance or shades of grey, everything has to be This or That, there can be nothing in the middle.

Meanwhile, Biden’s nominee for currency comptroller is a Russian educated “leftist” who supports nationalizing our banking system and bankrupting companies with which she disagrees. Wake up. Lefties are too consumed with a bunch of boogie men(racism, climate change, gender identity, etc.) while our adversaries infiltrate our government.

 

[justoffal]

P.S. I‘d be OK with increasing it to $10. All jobs around here pay a minimum of $15 anyway.

I don't think you actually understand.
The minimum wage will never actually change. If you force them to pay more dollar units per person they will simply take the value out of the unit
so that the pay that they get is the same as it was before only it will be described in more dollar units that are worth less per unit.

Life is not as neat and pretty as you pretend.

If you are not in charge of your own life, then who or what is?

Did you take every precaution to not have children you couldn't support? Did you plan way ahead of time? Did you graduate high school? Did you opt to start using dope so you couldn't even apply for a decent paying job? Did you research what kind of trade you wanted to enter and how to achieve it?

These are all things an individual is responsible for. There is no external force controlling these things for you.

Democrats are like the frog in the pot of cold water on top of the stove happily swimming around.

Using the process of slow conditioning, they don't even realize what they support or the ultimate outcome. I'll be off the planet by then, but when the Democrat party tells them they are actually Communists, they may be upset at first until they realize they've been that for a long time before being told.

25 years ago Democrats used to get upset when called Socialists. Today it's acceptable as they ran a presidential candidate who was admittedly a socialist. If not for rigging the primaries, he would have been their presidential contender against Donald Trump. And in 25 years from today, it will be the same way with Communists.

Lol

Good luck.

We Outnumber Them Thousands to One. Bad Luck for the HeirHeads.

That would eliminate income tax. Why do you prefer to tax the living instead of taxing the dead? Do you believe in ghosts?

 

[The Sage of Main Street]

I didn't understand anything you said like I don't understand 80% of what you usually post.

Mooching off Daddy Is Just As Evil As Mooching off the Taxpayer

You hypocritically and dishonestly exclude entitled richkids from your "Do It on Your Own" advice. Without their Daddy's Money, they'd be nobodies. The Bushes and Kennedys would be bartenders, Hillary would be a waitress. Bill Gates would be an underpaid computer geek, Warren Buffett would be a lowly clerk at an investment firm. A bit of suppressed knowledge is that his Daddy was a US Congressman.

Most millionaires today earned it on their own. The idea that wealthy people got that way due to “Daddy’s money” is an excuse failures tell themselves.

Other than that, most of your posts make no sense.
