Yeah I mean if the Maximum Starting wage was eliminated.... Wages might have kept up with inflation..... between the wage CAP of the minimum wage and uncontrolled dilution of the work force via immigration. I'm surprised we are doing as well as we are.......

The Canadian government confirmed Sunday that it has imposed tariffs on US exports worth 16.6 billion Canadian dollars ($12.5 billion).


More than 40 US steel products attract tariffs of 25%. A tax of 10% has been levied on over 80 other American items including toffee, maple syrup, coffee beans and strawberry jam.

Last week, the European Union imposed additional tariffs of 25% on US products such as motorcycles, orange juice, bourbon, peanut butter, cigarettes and denim. Mexico has also imposed new tariffs on the United States.

Texas has an interesting law for farmers and ranchers. They can pay as much or as little as they want, and can force their employees to work 16 hour days or lo get if they want, and without overtime. They just tend to stick with minimum wage. When a worker gets injured, too bad. They just replace that worker. To top it off, no employer is required to give a reason for firing an employee. Look at the boss the wrong way, and you're fired.

Ya see... we have a system of supply and demand. If ya don't like your job, ya get another job.
Or maybe you get smarter and get a better job. The object being, to increase your value to employers.

Or ya could just continue to piss and moan and blame others for your failures in life.

US companies, encouraged by a decade of unbelievably low borrowing costs, are sitting on $6.3 trillion of debt, according to S&P Global Ratings. That sum, which excludes banks, is more than before the Great Recession — or any other time in history.

The next adjustment/recession will be much worse than the last one. And it may not be too far away if the trade war accelerates.

Right wingers have been the leaders in the push for free trade and globalization.

Who has been lying to who?

Pretty much everyone. Lying has become much more popular since 1980 or so.

Sounds perfectly fair to me..

The workers don't have to accept the job.. if they don't agree with the terms... farmer will pay more and provide better benifits.. if that is what it takes to get good workers.. remember Farmers unlike a retail store and even processors... can't just raise their prices.... the government controls the prices farmers get paid.


It's called supply and demand....

IF you owned a business would you pay your workers MORE than the value they provide or maybe more than you can afford to pay? I don't think your business will survive long under those conditions.

Nothing is free.....

Hey lets not forget about Bush. The low borrowing rates started under Bush II.

But I know Dems do all of the bad stuff, Repubs are wonderful saints :D

Party first, truth, logic and reason last?

Yep obama kept to the Bush II path. Main reason why he sucked.

Yeah they all to some extent played a part.

Maybe it time to do something DIFFERENT. CHANGE is not always easy or painless. There has been plenty of pain to get in this hole....... gonna take more work and maybe more pain to dig out.

Ohh it will take lots of pain to get out of the hole we have gotten ourselves into.
I honestly feel that the vast majority of Americans do not have the resolve to dig out of this hole.
Just look at the personal debt levels and and saving s levels.
We are a spoiled and lazy society. And we want it all NOW!
We are not willing to save up for something like our previous generations did.
And why that either Russia or China will outpace us.
They are used to living with less and living a harder lifestyle for the most part.

imho the best we can hope for is to hold at this level with little real growth while the others come up closer to our level.
Globalization is not reversible without MAJOR pain which we are not willing to endure.

Believe the pie in the sky lying politicos if you want.
They are not out for the betterment of the rank and file Americans.
Neither party.
I deal mostly in reality.

Supply and demand = employers work employees to the point where they become disabled, and then get new employees to destroy.
Oh wait. That's not supply and demand. That's survival of the richest.

Those who have the supply demand what they want.

But it is bad for the labor supply to be unionized and demand more?

What are the redhats hating on illegals. They love criminals. They support Trump. They supported Nixon. Or, is the hating on illegals immigrants just for show? All because their skin is a different color, or because they speak a different language? Or could it be that they won't work themselves to an early grave like they used to?

We need Trump to bless us with at least two or three Supreme Court appointees before his first term ends.
The funniest part is that ancient liberal hack Ginsberg should have retired under Obama, but was too selfish.
Hopefully Trump will get to replace her too! :bliss:

Why Sarah does every country in the world have a right to stop illigal entry but the United States ?
Why are you so willing to make your own citizenship a meaningless thing ?
Why are you so willing to put law breaking invaders over Americans in need ?

So you support a 'living wage' for jobs?
Taxes to fix infrastructure?

So many work at minimum wage or low wage jobs and do not even get 40 hours a week and are offered health insurance if they pay 1/4-1/3 of their salary for it. And it is sucky insurance that many participants cannot even afford the deductibles for using it.

There are not enough decent paying jobs with benefits to go around for everyone and never has been and never will be.

You retardicans need them to work for slave wages, and then you can dispose of them when they get wore out. I don't need them, but you do.

Correction: it's about helping the wealthy.
That is the direction our country has taken.
It accelerated hard in that direction with Reganomics and Trickle down economic model.
And has not slowed down.

Kinda explains how we wound up with a superstar TV actor rich guy grab em by the pussy type that knew fuckall about how our government works or how the average American lives.
I wonder if he has ever shopped in a grocery store?
Well before he was shopping for voters that is :)
