do you have anything to add to the topic at hand, which is how minimum wage gains outpace the rise of cost in consumer goods, or do you just want to fantasize about licking my ass all night?

Looking for his next sugar daddy. You gotta twerk that shit if you fits to grease dough off homeboy. Back that shit up one time for me, girly.
See? Minimum wage is MORE than enough as it is, it should actually be LOWER than it is now, thanks for making me see the light.
Because of Bucky's infallible posts about how consumer goods are actually cheaper now than ever before, the minimum wage should actually be around $4.50.

that's nice, but most americans have "eggs, bread, milk, bananas and coffee" on their shopping lists, not precious metals.
you listed what you might have been paid for them, not what the end consumer pays. BLS does not list wheat, but they do list bread, and that only went up 33% while wages, well, ya know.
wages went up 41%, otherwise known as more.

i don't think "give america a demotion" would work well politically.
take it up with the BLS.
People buy silver and gold and copper every time they buy an electronic device, Corn comes in so many things as does wheat. What do you mean people don't buy those things? They buy them every day.
Show us commodities there bub, its easy to hide inflation when your the BLS, you get to pick and choose your prices. Where EXACTLY did the price for milk come from? Can't pick and choose the commodities prices though.
