yet that is what soclism is. Where the government controls the means of production.
And, no one is advocating that, despite the repeated bleating of folks like you and others who consume faux news.
it is there company if you don't like it then you are free to go work for someone else. No one forces you to work for 1 company forever. the CEO of walmart makes 22m. walmart employee 2.2 million people congrats you gave everyone 10 dollars. they are so happy.
The "go work for someone else" argument ignores the counter productive nature of competition when it comes to reducing employer cost by cutting benefits, which you completely ignored (as usual, I will note.)
It also ignores that alot of americans work in areas where employment options are limited. Coupled with vastly bloated housing prices country wide, and you have a real issue of fluid mobility on your hands. I'd like this and the point above addressed.
pay is dependent on the position that you are opening. If i am opening another fast food place and i am paying 10 bucks and hour then those people are making good money for their position. when i have 300m people that can take fries out of a fryer you don't really get much leverage on pay.
So, pay is dependent on position, not employee skill, is that correct? Thank you for being honest; the truth finally comes out. You don't get a raise, despite being awesome, because I've only earmarked X dollars for X position, and you can leave if you don't like it!
Sort of diminishes the argument you guys make about the labor market and demanding pay for your own skill, right? Or, should this employee simply leave for another job which may or may not exist in their home town? How many large employers do you think exist in the average american town?
A business can't pay more than what the position is worth nor can it pay more than what you can make.
Again, you're tying salary to a position, which diminishes the value a laborer can demand for their skill set. This is the opposite of a free market. Can you elaborate?
If they want to pay for part of an investment and take on part of the risk then they have skin in the game. Other than that we have a consensual contract that they will work for X for over Y hours. if they don't like
that contract then they are free to look elsewhere. I am not going to pay obscene wages that I simply can't pay.
I'm not advocating for obscene wages. I'm not even entirely decided on what I think of minimum wage, for what it's worth. The primary issue in my mind when it comes to minimum wage is the disparity between income and how much housing costs in this country. Real estate is overvalued.
appeal to emotion argument.

we know you aren't honest. you have established that already.
Says the guy who doesn't know what democrats are actually advocating for.
Yes, your credibility is solid!
