Min wage should be a living wage, at least $12 per hour, then let the market sort it out. The only problem is which of these low paying jobs would be shipped over seas. The other issue, if wages go up too much, the person is replaced by robotics.

To be fair, leaving the minimum wage at its current slavery levels isn't exactly stopping that anyways.

Also the majority of the people who call someone a "Pinko" are ignorant to even the basic ideas Communism, so don't let it get to you, bubblehead.

this whole argument is pure BS

if you want all workers paid a living wage then change the minimum wage but I am sick and tired of all the boo-hoo crying because some snot nosed kids at burger king cant buy a corvette on what they make.

I live on disability and get $1,000 a month and that's it! $12,000 a year total income which is also (according to the government) too much to qualify for any other forms of assistance or government aid programs and yet somehow I can manage to live on that so why cant they manage on what they get now which is almost double what I have for income. pardon me if I don't cry about a bunch of kids who cant afford the latest fashion trends on a burger king job.

this "false" notion of they need their food stamps EBT to survive is BS anyway since you don't qualify for food stamps if you make minimum wage because "you have too much income"

there are some older workers there that never saved any money and are now at retirement age with nothing and must go to work and burger king is all the options they have but that is not burger kings fault it is theirs for not preparing and saving money when they had a good job.

for those people on soc security there definitely needs to be a large increase in minimum benefits so that it stays in line with the current federal minimum wage.

the real crime is making seniors try to live on so little income while everything gets so expensive around them and at the same time say its unfair not to pay teens at burger king double their present pay, at $7.25 they have twice the income I and the majority of seniors in this country have now to live on.

at election time everyone is in favor of cutting social security in the name of making it better yet we have only gotten two 1 percent cost of living increase in the last ten years, so spare me those poor spoiled kids wanting more party money. there are others who have more pressing needs.

Webster, you've noticed the pattern.
The black SUV's will be along shortly for your ride to the FEMA camp, along with that pinko Bubblehead.

That's what happens when the slaves get all uppity.

To be left is the way, if you care for the people, if you want to be fair and just, if you want to provide just enough for all.
To be right is the way, if you care for the money, if you want to exploit and dominate, if you want to provide all for only a few.

Capitalism cares for the money, socialism cares for the people. Socialism fails, if it has to compete with capitalism, because socialism is not after money, it is not after competition. Capitalism has to fight socialism, as it depends on growth. Growth on resources and consumers, to be found in the socialist system, after the capitalist system hits its own limits.

Socialism is a counterweight for capitalism. If it vanishes, capitalism runs hot and evolves into fascism. The former forced social markets of capitalism change into free capitalistic markets, destroying any social habits. All hard-won privileges are wound down and withdrawn.
The people are reduced to resources - human resources. They are used and treated like slaves, because there is no alternative (unattacked or uncrippled) system available. And the slaves turn asocial, fight each other and think they are responsible, because they don't understand their own system.

As long as we fail to limit the accumulation of money, all humane, social and caring systems, all democracy will fail again and again.

The capitalist forces win back all the terrain they lost with the invention of democracy and socialism.
They are competitive by default and they accumulate money to power to control, to lead us back into the dark ages.

We let money rule the world. That's the problem.
