  1. Here it is Lucrum from a post a long time ago my views on the minimum wage.

    The minimum wage is a safety net for the poor, those not as smart or motivated as you. So what that you've worked for minimum wage and now your successful so have I. But not everyone is as smart, educated and driven or as tough as you are. Some people are doing as good as they can but they will never be leaders all they'll have is a life of hard work at low wages. History has proved if there are not worker safety nets like minimum wage laws, child labor laws, overtime laws, then business does and will take advantage of the workers. What makes our country so great is we let the smart and motivated like you become successful but we still have a heart and a sense of decency and will protect the less advantaged. And without these same type of laws many successful people would be working 60 and 70 hour weeks without overtime. No one gripes about federal mandated overtime laws because that might affect them too.

    what a line of b.s. you had it backwards I presented you with a hypothetical to show why your logic was incorrect. I did not say the price of gold went down. I said it would have gone done had the pool of dollars been static and the demand of dollars around the world was a strong as it was.


    A logical non emotional arguer would have concluded that the demand for dollars was slaked by an enormous private distribution of dollars. You would have concluded inflation must have been created by the private electronic distribution of dollars.

    LOL! Typical liberal loon (needs to be locked in a rubber room) response when confronted by points they can't answer. Common sense has apparently never knocked on wheelbarrow's camper screen...

  5. God you're a retard. The very next post was showing my thoughts on minimum wage from a post I made a few years ago.

    Hint so your slow ass can find my post, it's at the top of this page. Ask Lucrum to help you find it if you get stumped.

    I'm big enough to get in a boxing ring with your stupid ass.
    When did you say you were coming to ATL again?
    No dumb ass, just the relatively recent stupid ones.
    I don't see where you've stated your view on the min wage in THIS thread. Other to parrot your intellectual superior's positions. When asked for explanations you...wait for it...throw insults.


    2006? I'm supposed to remember that you tried to make a legitimate contribution to this thread's topic. From 2006?

  8. Lucrum since you didn't disagree with my views on the minimum wage does that mean you agree with me? I mean you always have something to say even if if something stupid. Or do you not understand? Let me know, I'll try to simplify it so you can understand. Then you can dumb it down even further so little leap can keep up.

  9. We don't need to raise the min wage.

    We need to preserve the purchasing power of the dollar.

    This would allow the middle class to preserve the wealth they earn rather than transfer it to the wealth skimmers, and keep the working poor from being constantly dunked under water.

    But who would lose the benefit derived from inflationary devaluation?

    Hmmmm.......
