What new account? What was my old account? Are you always this unreasonable? You've abandoned the topic for some peculiar reason. Why is that?
What happens if Biden gets his $15 minimum wage passed?

What new account? What was my old account? Are you always this unreasonable? You've abandoned the topic for some peculiar reason. Why is that?
'What's a sock?'
ROTLFMFAO!!! You need to think about whether your responses pass the smell test 'Red'.

Why?
Everyone who has ever posted on a chat board knows what a sock is. You pretending that you don't know what the term means is transparent. There are other tells as well. Carry on, 'Red'.

How many posts do I have? If you think I have been here before what other name did I use?
You created this ID to posture as a newbie because posting under your normal IDs would force you to eat plates of shit you don't want to eat.
I have no idea, nor do I care. When you claim not to know what a sock is, it calls into question every other thing you claim. Suit yourself. You're protesting way too much. Just post.
So, what happens if Biden gets the minimum wage to $15 an hour?
Here's were the minimum wage is right now:
In many states that more than doubles it overnight. Given the current state of business closures for Chinese Disease, will they just decide to close for good in those states? Will employers be able to take that big a wage hit? Will the states with larger portions of the population at minimum wage take a bigger hit?
How will this affect workers making $15 an hour or more?
My prediction is it is one of many blows that the economy will take causing recovery to grind to a halt... Will Biden blame Trump for that?
99% of the Democrats on this board would get a raise.

What ID are you talking about? $15 MW will destroy businesses. Any comment about that?

you'll get a raise
Yes. No it won't destroy businesses. There are many studies that clearly demonstrate this, and sound economic reasons why it isn't true.

I'm not the one derailing this thread. You do seem to care because you have posted more about that recently than the topic. What protesting have I done?
You're the one keeping this alive, 'Red'. You have protested probably a dozen times. Again, my advise, just post and ignore the sock claims. That's what I do. If you want to end it, stop replying. Otherwise, stop whining.

Can you cite one? Maybe it's an overstatemebt to say it will destroy businesses but mcdonald put up kiosks to have fewer people on the cash registers. That certainly doesn't help the people MW was intended to help.

There are dozens. What does automation have to do with this discussion? Try to stay focused.

No you are. I've asked you to tell me what other name I've used and you can't. You accused me of something without evidence and you you want me to shut up? I don't think so. If you want it to stop then apologize.
All Democrats do that.

It has a lot to do with it. If machines replace people fewer people will have access to $15 mw jobs. People with $15mw jobs will leave them less frequently making even fewer jobs available. That can't be good can it? There is no need to to snarky.
I didn't accuse you of anything except lying about not knowing what a sock was. Because you are lying about that. This is what I mean by 'you protest too much'. Every time you reply to me, you keep this alive. Your choice. I don't care if you talk about this forever. Why would I. You are the one whining about it.
