Lol ok didn't know spelling n grammer mattered....guess its highschool again
im not a stickler for punctuation, spelling or capitalization, but i dont want to have to run a gibberish decompiler or buy 30 fucking vowels to parse your comments.

saving yourself from the labour of typing an extra 4 letters per post forces the reader to translate your twatter post into english, or most likely, to simply ignore your comment entirely.

Not really a big fan of someone telling me how much I can charge for my services or merchandise.
cap either, and watch both become more expensive.

that 5 dollar coffee may only be 4 bucks, but now the cups are 2 bucks. health regulations could mean no bringing your own cup, even if they are just in house regulations.

damn.

servive providers will farther break down their services, and charge for each step they take. nothing will be ¨ïncluded¨ in the service cuz your ass is gonna pay for it all.

damn again.

And of course this has happened every time minimum wage has been raised in the past?

YES IT HAS!!! It is economics. You are making the cost of a product more expensive.

Liberals somehow think that corporations and businesses are greedy bastards that will let an employee starve to save a dime but somehow when they forcibly raise minimum wage they say that the business owners are suddenly going to pay for the difference out of their profits...

Logic escapes you...

With a $5.81 raise in wages for each employee, I don't see this pie in the sky experiment working.

A business with only four full time employees will have at a minimum, after insurance and payroll burdens, a $55k increase of annual payroll.
You'd have to be a complete moron to think you could pay someone $600 a week to stuff hamburgers and fries in a bag and still make a profit.
wow just like most business owners i consult with, you have poor math skills.

5.81(40)(4)(52) = 48339.20

i just found 6660.80 for you!:mrgreen:

And like most liberals I consult with, you have poor real-world comprehension skills. What happens when employees have to work overtime and the business is required to pay them time and a half? As stated by beenthere, what about increases in insurance prices for these employees? What about PTO? All of these things increase at a geometrically rate and put extreme stress on businesses. Not only that, lets just assume that a business is "only" required to pay an additional 48,339.20 a year as you stated. Can you pull that kind of money out of your ass? What makes you think a small company barely staying afloat can toss out another 50k like its no big deal. Somehow you seem to think that this magical 6660 you "found" proves your right when your missing the point entirely and it would be safe to assume that money would easily be made up for in premiums and other bullshit brought on by such a ridiculous increase in wages.

What is a geometrically rate?

Just raise the minimum wage to $1,000,000 a year for everyone, then we're all millionaires, right...?

at kushy fortune 500, they made us (sales) agree to no employer 401k contribution for one year in order to maintain service team..my manager in 2008 said verbatim "are you gonna go out there and tell them that we will begin laying off because you don't want to give up your employer 401k contribution"?..when i left in 2010, they still not had resumed the employer portion of 401k..yet they were able to continue in increasing dividend to shareholders..another penny or two per share..how exciting!..all on our back.

So there is no benefit to minimum wage because that is the same as putting everyone on a million dollar annual salary? Feel free to elaborate.

While you try figure out the commonly used analogy, I'll just lol at your stupidity until then.

Lol.
