MINIMUM WAGE SHOULD NOT BE RAISED FOR THE LAZY!!

Yet defend tax breaks on plenty of businesses that already have offshore tax shelters? [b]TRUMP EARNED HIS MONEY HE IS A REAL WINNER[/b] so are you saying trump works harder than most on minimum wage? [b]BURGER FLIPPERS DONT DESERVE A RAISE!THEY ARE LAZY!![/b] But what about all the other jobs? City maintenance? Medical? I bet you he hasn't even lifted a hammer in his whole life. [b]THEN GET A REAL JOB![/b] Well someone has to do the dirty work. Conservatives have always tried to make legal immigration harder ( I'm not talking about illegal) so who is supposed to do it then? Imagine if sewage workers left their jobs to no longer be called losers. You want a working bathroom don't you? [b]Liberals are just lazy bums and don't work! [/b] You mean a lot of city folk? You are telling me city people work less as hard as rural people? I don't know what you think but if you have seen doomsday preppers there is a huge majority of a certain group that is on that show....

    A full-time, year-round worker paid the minimum wage would earn just $15,080 a year. As shown in Figure 2 below, that amount falls under the poverty line for a family of two and is far below the minimum wage’s inflation-adjusted historical peak of $19,854 (2014 dollars). - See more at: http://www.civilrights.org/publications/reports/minimum-wage/current-state-of-minimum-wage.html#sthash.zbRzPNis.dpuf minimum wage for 1 year [b][i][u]$15,080[/u][/i][/b] US poverty line income bracket level (if you make less than this; you are in poverty and eligible for welfare and federal aid) [b][i][u]$19,854[/u][/i][/b]

  • Minimum wage was just raised to 15$/hr. in California (goes in effect aprox 2020). This is how much a paramedic makes. That's right: a McDonalds burger maker will make the same as a professional trained to save lives. Does that seem right to anyone?

    • I do not support Donald Trump. But to think a burger flipper works harder than him is Idiotic. Do you know how long rehearsing speeches alone takes? Traveling across the country? Doing interviews? Working on your political stances? Running several businesses? You must be high as shit to think damn near any min wage worker works as many hours as any presidential candidates. Especially those who run businesses. You clearly have no idea how much time that takes.

      • Donald Trump got a multi-million dollar inheritance from his father. He also was loaned 1 million dollars from his father. He's had it pretty good and safe, it's also much easier for him to get where he is now compared to someone else.

      • Why does the discussion end at a fast food job? Plenty of back braking labor out there that people work even harder at and get paid just the same or even less.

          • Here's my bit on this subject. Adults should not be working for minimum wage like this. They should have some other job that pays more. Jobs at McDonald's, excluding managers, should be taken up by teens in school. Adults need to pay taxes, rent, mortgages, bills, pay for food, and much more. Something needs to be done.

              You don't know that they're lazy, some people have 2-3 minimum wage jobs to support there families. They're working there ass off for food on the table for their children. College cost has increased 7x and minimum wage hasn't, it would take lifetimes on s minimum wage job to pay for college, when 20 years ago you could pay it off with a minimum wage job by working your ass off.

              • Trump picked a career with more opportunity than flipping burgers. If you don't want to work for minimum wage don't have minimum skills. This may come as a shock to some people but effort =/= deserved pay. A heart surgeon will make more money than a trench digger because it's not like just anyone can pick up a scalpel and save lives. I will ABSOLUTELY defend tax breaks because neither YOU nor anyone else is ENTITLED to other people's profits. Taxes should only exist as a necessary evil, to the barest extent possible and perhaps not even then.

                    • Minimum wage is not a living wage. You shouldn't go into a min-wage job expected to be able to support yourself amply on it, although some people manage to do so. The problem is that so many people who are in min-wage jobs are trying to support a family with it, which is simply idiotic. You're supposed to start at min-wage jobs then eventually move up to a better one, not just stay at the first job and expect it to cater to your specific economic needs. It's your responsibility to adjust to your financial situation, not your employer's. I wish people would do their research before trying to argue for a $15 minimum wage.

                            Minimum wage raises cause inflation which in turn causes a price increase in everything which in turn causes more people to complain that they do not make enough money

                          • Mmmm, it really shouldn't be raised. It's a low skill job. Most people have the choice to get educated and have a higher skill job. If they're doing something that takes years of training, shouldn't they be compensated more for it?

                            • At the most, 10$ sounds reasonable. But 15$?! You guys are asking for prices of goods to possibly go up.

                              • I believe that any job where you work 40 hours a week should provide a living wage. If a business is unable to provide a living wage, it shouldn't exist.
