[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Raising minimum wage isn't going to make things more affordable. As DC found out, raising the minimum wage only creates unemployment. [/quote]That’s right. To maintain profit which is the main way of avoiding bankruptcy, companies will get rid of employees and put the work load onto existing employees, effectively causing them to work 2x as much but not for 2x the pay.

If that cannot be done, employee hours will be cut.

A business is there to make money, not be a charity for lazy and stupid people. [/quote]

You think people working minimum wage are “lazy and stupid”?

WTF is wrong with you? 
[/quote]I think those who work a minimum wage job expecting to make a living at it are stupid and lazy. A minimum wage job is a stepping stone to gain experience and sustain yourself at a subsistence level while you develop more skills.  [/quote]

A minimum wage job should provide a living wage. However, that doesn't mean a 5,000 sql ft. SFH in the suburbs. [/quote]
