Meanwhile, back in Appendix A of the CBO's report:
In reading the way they made their calculations in more detail, the bulk of losses are going to be amongst teenagers.
Adults, they find, feel effects at 1/3 the magnitude of teens.
So, this implies any discussion of the matter in regards to those lazy, lifelong hamburger-flipping, box-stacking, gov't teet sucking, welfare losers is rather moot.
This is what it all comes down to, for the most part:
.....(pg.25),
which just gets plugged into a 5-factor regression model, from what I gathered.
Meh, too many uncertainties to account for makes it prone to wild estimation.
But it makes for one helluva talking-point, right?
Who will hang the neon sign in the bar for me? WE ARE DOOMED!
I hope Bill O'RLY is on the case. He'll get to the bottom of this!

Basically what you are saying is that the CBO has no idea, never has, never will?
I agree.

That bud is terrible. No frost and way too much red and very leafy. Not an impressive grow by any stretch. I wouldn't consider that kine. I'd give you $2.25 for what's in that box, because I would feel bad.

Bro, what's your problem?
Almost every time you post, it's something negative about another member.
If you think the abundance or lack of trichromes determine THC content, you have a lot to learn.

"I think" "There's a thread".
What cockswaggle you come here spouting off without a clue. Slow drying is essential because it allows time for the starches in the plant to break down and then curing allows for an even humidity to develop throughout the bud.
Try facts next time rather than hearsay, 15 years...?
Bitch please.

I disagree that they made this estimate for the sake of a "talking point". The CBO has a track record of being nonpartisan and making accurate predictions. Do you believe the minimum wage increase will not cost jobs? Do you believe employers will simply accept lower profits, or possibly that increased wages will lead to higher production? If you're going to try and discredit the CBO's predictions at least offer up your own.

I can see how you would extrapolate that meaning, but that was not what I was referencing with "talking-point".
The talking-point comes from those who read the headline and start running with the ball without any consideration for the details. As for my attitude towards the CBO, if you'll scroll back a few posts it should be apparent I have enough respect for them to at least critique their work honestly.
But from the perspective of a scientist, their work is far from solid, hence the emphasis on the uncertainties in my critique.
First off, in the case of "discrediting", one does not need to offer an alternative hypothesis, only to show the study can be falsified; that is the basis of peer-review. In this case, the uncertainties are not negligible and the root equation is centered around old literature reviews which measured poverty in environments far different from what we are currently entertaining. And as noted earlier, the bulk of the supposed job losses are going to be felt by teens in their estimate (which I figure to be about 375k based on a back of the envelope calc).
Personally I don't feel min wage is the most effective means of dealing with poverty. I am far more supportive of the idea for Guaranteed income or Negative Income Tax.
Those are direct outlays to the poor which would create the consumer base to keep the economy functioning, while providing income supplements to those at the bottom so they don't have to worry about getting paid diddly-squat. It's the Henry Ford principle on a grand scale which benefits both SMEs and the bottom quintile.
And BTW, it appears I'm not the only one pointing out the uncertainties issue in the report:

The Average Business in the USA employs 16 people and makes a profit of $110,000 a year. To pay 16 employees $2 an hour more will cost $65,000 a year.
Do you think all the businesses in the USA are going to willingly take a 60% haircut?
nope, they are either going to raise prices, or cut quality, portions and service.
Instead of the 20 piece McNuggets that weighs 11.4 oz it will weigh 10 oz.
Instead of a 16 oz drink it will be a 15.2 oz drink.
Only the astute and detail oriented will acknowledge or even see that things are getting worse, the rest will blissfully play on their phones.
But a min wage hike of $2 is panzy ass shit that helps no one in the long run. $1,000 an hour so we can all work as hard as possible to accumulate as much wealth as possible before the dollar no longer has any perceivable value.

you forgot the part where people have more money to spend and the business owner sells more.
Only Min wage workers will have more to spend. Its not a raise for everyone, you should know this since all your jobs have been min wage.
