No, I have already so often here.

2018-11-20 07:25:01 UTC  

so i guess you are forfeiting or want to reschedule this topic

2018-11-20 07:25:03 UTC  

Have you read sowell?

2018-11-20 07:25:11 UTC  

I can tonight or tomorrow. I don't want to stay here so long.

2018-11-20 07:25:12 UTC  

@Pyro having a high minimum wage is different from a minimum wage

2018-11-20 07:25:19 UTC  

fine, let's talk about it tomorrow then

2018-11-20 07:25:29 UTC  

i have a busy day tuesday and wednesday in the office

2018-11-20 07:25:38 UTC  

at night i'll be free

2018-11-20 07:25:45 UTC  

@Pyro and you really won't get the job if I can import 3 workers who can acceptably do the job for a third of the wage, that is going to screw inner city employment over

2018-11-20 07:25:52 UTC  

still, i find it hilarious that anyone would be in favor of no minimum wage

2018-11-20 07:26:04 UTC  

utterly mad

2018-11-20 07:26:11 UTC  

i'm looking forward to having my mind blown

2018-11-20 07:26:19 UTC  

let's say that

2018-11-20 07:26:33 UTC  

Man I love needing a job just to eat, but getting paid only .10 cents

2018-11-20 07:26:36 UTC  

Must be wonderful

2018-11-20 07:26:43 UTC  

alright guys it's about 11:30 pm my time

2018-11-20 07:26:47 UTC  

might as well log off

2018-11-20 07:26:51 UTC  

Most people don't end up doing that

2018-11-20 07:26:54 UTC  

take care, have a good night

2018-11-20 07:27:02 UTC  

look at what happened at foxcon

2018-11-20 07:27:05 UTC  

Same I got an exam in the morning

2018-11-20 07:27:12 UTC  

According to that logic, before minimum wage, everybody would have worked for cents.

2018-11-20 07:27:22 UTC  

But that was not the case.

2018-11-20 07:27:24 UTC  

workers were jumping off the building and committing suicide because foxcon would not pay liveable wages

2018-11-20 07:27:29 UTC  

All unskilled people did

2018-11-20 07:27:30 UTC  

to be fair, they probably did

2018-11-20 07:27:45 UTC  

5 dollars used to be a lot

2018-11-20 07:27:57 UTC  

This is true too

2018-11-20 07:28:44 UTC  

lol, the initial minimum wage was 25 cents

2018-11-20 07:28:47 UTC  

There is still a market value.

2018-11-20 07:28:48 UTC  

That's more of a labor law issue

2018-11-20 07:29:04 UTC  

"On this day in 1938, a federal minimum wage went into effect under the Fair Labor Standards Act. Congress initially set the wage at 25 cents an hour"

2018-11-20 07:29:17 UTC  

My market value is zero because I have no skills

2018-11-20 07:29:21 UTC  

If the actual market value of the work is $10 and you were forced to pay them $20, you would also have fewer of those unskilled workers employed

2018-11-20 07:29:28 UTC  

And then, they have no job.

2018-11-20 07:29:29 UTC  

Guess I deserve to starve because profit

2018-11-20 07:29:47 UTC  

Many people who are unskilled get their skills by being employed in the first place.

2018-11-20 07:30:03 UTC  

By eliminating someone's worst option, they do not end better off.

2018-11-20 07:30:05 UTC  

But being employed for 10 cents

2018-11-20 07:30:08 UTC  

Wonderful

2018-11-20 07:30:09 UTC  

They just end up without that option.
