More Americans Are Finally Seeing Something New: A Pay Raise

[OnePercenter]

Without investors (risk-takers) and innovators there would be no jobs other than infrastructure building and maintenance.

And without the government providing infrastructure there would be no investors.

For the first 20 years of my business career I did the work that generated the profit and paid outside contractors (most also self-employed) for specific services.

You were the employee.

When I finally needed employees, I paid them the going rates for their labor.

Instead of paying higher than 'going rates' and attracting better workers and developing your business even further, you opted to be the guy that hung up a shingle rather than an entrepreneur.

BTW, when I INVESTED my hard earned cash in property development, I again used (mostly self-employed) outside contractors - builders, lawyers, architects, accountants, engineers, facilitators, etc. - to more efficiently get my INVESTMENT projects completed.

As an investor you should have had others do that for you. A rule of thumb in investing; If it's hard, your doing it wrong. How hard do you think the Walmart 7 work? How hard do you think I work?

I just got a 7.4% raise at my job when I had my annual review this past month.

Fantastic!

You've yet to prove any of your socialist silliness to be true and Socialism, according to WIKI, "is a social and economic system characterised by social ownership of the means of production and co-operative management of the economy, as well as a political theory and movement that aims at the establishment of such a system."
Socialism - Wikipedia the free encyclopedia

So who pays for the streetlight, the fire department, and the police department is Socialism?

I believe that kids should have a free education. I also believe that child labor should be illegal. Does that make me a Marxist?

If so many raises are being given, then why does Deanies messiah lambast corporations for using the ACA as an excuse for cutting wages?

too stupid if the employees make them the money why do they give to the owners? See why we say the liberal will be 100% ignorant.

So employees hand their employers cash? Really?

too stupid as always Republicans want capitalism because it would reduced prices by 80% so that everyone could afford it.

Republicans could care less if workers had healthcare. If a worker got sick, they'd get another worker.

Republicans care foremost if insurance companies can buy healthcare systems. For instance, during the Bush destruction of the middle class, United Healthcare purchased the majority of hospital systems and health provider systems in Vegas. This way, UHC can pay THEMSELVES for providing healthcare. ACA stands in the way by making health insurers use the majority of the money they collect FROM their customers, ON their customers.

Lame deflection. You claimed that socialism is not an economic system. The definition of socialism says you lied.

dear, as a typical liberal you lack the the IQ to understand capitalism. A business has to provide the best products and jobs as a matter of survival. Is that really over your head?
Can your mother explain it to you?

total idiot liberal has never been to business school or run a business. If one competitor is worried about ROI and one is worried about pleasing his customers guess which one will succeed. Capitalism is about pleasing others and creating civilization on earth. It grew out of gift giving.

ROI in any existing business is a give, it's record profits every quarter.
