Lol the federal minimum wage in the US is so low that if a "small business" can't afford to pay it they should not even be in business. Funny how the Republicans have been brainwashed into thinking people on min wage are rolling in the dough. For fucks sake do they want people to work for free?  Any less pay and people will decide to stay home and not work...maybe welfare would be more profitable.

No, but I believe in capitalism and think socialism is a failure and makes things worse. 

BTW - I'm self employed so this whole issue is academic for me at best. 

25 too high or no?

Fact is rich are getting richer and poor getting poorer. So many poor republicans support policies that harm them simply because they think one day they might receive the benefits if they become wealthy but in reality very few ever will. Maybe I'm the minority because I don't desire to be super rich because I feel that once you are rich you are rich, but that's just a value I have. Like I tell my friends I have pretty much nothing but have everything I want. But back to min wage 25 is a lot, I think it should be enough for a person to live off of frugally. I know I wouldn't want to live off of 8.50 an hour.

Just my opinions, now can we get back to talking about oiled up men in thongs, that's what's really important here.

Yes. Essentially any system with ANY tax is dabbling in socialism.

There is no point in striving to become rich, it is pointless, you cannot take it to the grave with you and when you die, people will not remember you for being so rich and cool, they will remember you for being obsessed with money and never having anytime for people.

I don't like it either my friend. I feel a consumption tax would be better. Maybe with some subsidy for poor people.

What sort of fucking emotional part of your brains makes you think that you can just create money out of thin air?? The minimum wage does nothing but cause higher unemployment for young unskilled people and/or contribute to inflation. Try opening a fucking economics book.

Fuck it. Let's pull out all the stops.

Let's bring back slavery and child labor. We don't need big government telling us how to run our lives.

The invisible hand of the free market will correct everything. It worked in the past.

Oh by the way, that Alynskite Bitch in the video. Remember when she mentioned clean energy jobs that were saved? How many jobs? $535 million worth of jobs? No, that was the loan that was made to Solyndra, which went bankrupt.

Um, where did I mention slavery? This verbal inflation that you liberals engage in makes you seem like overly sensual children. You really should stop it. Child labor? You do not that kids arent working in factories anymore right? Besides, nobody is calling for the stopping of regulations. But trying to tell a business how much he can pay a worker when that business knows much better what that worker is worth is a regulation that does not make any sense to make.
