yes they do but you are too afraid to acknowledge it because you're a sensitive weakling.

Wasn't he rebuffed not very long ago when he said the same thing? He doesn't learn.

Ok. So what? I admit I don't really know anything about Denmark. At a quick glance it seems that through collective bargaining and unions the average minimum wage is around 20 bucks an hour.

We still need higher minimum wage in the us.

why did the min wage in 1950 of $1/hr provide for a family on one income and now even 15/hr just isn't enough?

What is the difference between workers collectivising to form a union for fair wages vs workers voting to make fair wages law? The people have spoken, the math speaks for itself, but unfortunately some of our elected officials listen to a decently large number of people that benefit from suppressing labor and preventing fair pay.

I wonder if it might be a good idea for the federal min. wage to be a mandate to states to instate min. wage according to yearly costs of living (itemized and evaluated on a yearly basis) per county, instead of a raw number that applies to every area of the US.

^^^^hates inflation because he was too poor/stupid to invest in a home so bought a trailer instead which depreciates to $0.00

Inflation is already happening. The goal is for people to afford to live where they work without government assistance. Or do you prefer the taxpayer to subsidize businesses that choose to exploit the labor market?

how is a government mandated wage not government assistance?

and no. I prefer money with property rights as a check for inflation.

 

[UncleBuck]

how is a government mandated wage not government assistance?

because it's a mandate and not assistance.

words have meanings.

You are a silly person.

Maybe because workers want their employers simply to pay them enough to exist instead of getting shamed for accepting the government cheese. So unreasonable, amiright?

So why not just print more money and give everyone a million dollars? Wouldn't that solve all the problems?

In another thread @abandonconflict was talking about wearing a dress. Maybe you and he could go somewhere nice and have a man date?

Minimum wage laws are a mandate, but they assist in the involuntary transfer of money, since they negate voluntary terms in favor of mandated terms.

so they need government assistance to make them pay, that is make those taxpayers pay more. so that's government assistance on both sides of that gun.
