It's not rocket science

Nope, I'm not making that up. I've worked since I was 14 when minimum wage was 4.25/ hr. Im a military veteran, currently a plumber making 23/hr. I've worked my butt off to get here. My wages don't automatically go up. My wife worked up in her job to 17.50. Her wage doesn't go up. It's not mandatory for employers to raise all wages just because minimum wage goes up. It's bs. Anyone who thinks that min wage should be $15 is either lazy or stupid.

No, I have respect for people who work for what they want. Not the pieces of crap that expect handouts.

Yes I respect those people, and if they work hard and deserve it, they'll get a raise. But people have to remember, they agree to work for whatever the employer offers them during the interview.

I don't what?

It's easy to choose not to work when mommy and daddy keep paying you.

Where the hell do you think inflation comes from?

If the lowest paid worker now makes more per hour, the company pushes that cost onto the consumer, which will cause them to charge more for their services if they own a business. If they don’t, they spend less on non-essential items, causing those companies to lose money, which makes them cut jobs or raise prices.

Minimum wage increases are a farce to get young, unskilled workers to vote Democrat, not realizing they will eventually be paying more for everything with their ‘higher wage’.

Leftists do NOT understand the economy.

There have been federal MW increases, not to mention State increases.

And while there are other factors to inflation rates such as government spending, natural disasters, etc., every time there is an increase to the minimum wage, there is ALWAYS a spike in inflation rates.

No. I just think that people should deserve them, not get them just because they have a job.

If you want to make more money, get a better job.

Yes. It absolutely is. You find a job that pays what you want or you work your way up to it.

BTW, slave got $0 dollars per hour/day/week, so your analogy sucks.

No excuse for unskilled labor to make more money just because they have a job.

Work hard, prove you deserve more, or find a different job.

Other than recessions, there are ALWAYS better jobs IF you have a good work ethic and the ability to learn.

If you can’t find a better job, you’re either lazy or unable to learn new skills.

Naw. I just have no tolerance for lazy people wanting the same thing I had to work hard to get without having to do the same.

Wow. So because I think that all people should only make a wage that they actually deserve, I’m a horrible person?

In that case, since you believe that businesses should be forced to pay a wage that isn’t earned, you must be a horrible person.

…not always readily available for lazy, untrainable workers.

Finished it for you.
