    You treat "leftists" the way you do because you are a low-life, classless jerk off...not because of any philosophical disputes.

    EVERYONE who works should be paid enough to live a comfortable life...enough money for food, clothing, shelter, medical expenses, schooling for kids, recreational access...and ability to put a few dollars away for retirement.

    Only a fucking moron like you would need it spelled out any more definitively.

    Health care and day care should be provided for workers by government. Tax the super rich to pay for it. They won't even feel it. They've got so much money they don't know what to do with it. Getting richer is just a game to them. They don't need it.
    Personal Ignore Policy PIP: I like civil discourse. I will give you all the respect in the world if you respect me. Mouth off to me, or express overt racism, you will be PERMANENTLY Ignore Listed. Zero tolerance. No exceptions. I'll never read a word you write, even if quoted by another, nor respond to you, nor participate in your threads. ... Ignore the shallow. Cherish the thoughtful. Long Live Civil Discourse, Mutual Respect, and Good Debate! ps: Feel free to adopt my PIP. It works well.

    Sounds as though "licking balls" is what you are into.

    Oh, well...different strokes for different folks.

    So you don't have a number just yur stupid fucking rhetoric.
    Oh, I've got a number. I've got YOUR number. You are a moron. Hey, no problemo. We've got room for morons like you.



    Like I figured but it's nice to see you shine like the fucking idiot you are for all to see. Fucking queer boy
    Tsk, tsk. You want a number.

    Okay. Anything under $400,000 is pretty much being defined right now as middle class earnings. So make it be that. Something under $400,000 per year...BUT above $200,000.

    Yeah...that's what anyone who works a full week should be earning. That would be a reasonable, comfortable living wage.

    So that figures out to about $100 per hour.

    At $15 per hour...a person would make about $30,000 per year. Imagine trying to live a decent life with those earnings.

    Bullshit


    The SEC held back the rules on who could act as a broker for 8 years


    That is how all the SUBPRIME loans got sold


    Then the market broke due to the idiocy the banks did to make a quick buck


    Read the link in my signature




    The first link is the SEC it’s self admitting to doing it

    Did you completely miss the casino the wealthy made out of the stock market? It is not the first time they crashed it. They did it in 2007 by removing banking and investment regulations and Glass /Steagal? Do you know anything?

    Jobs require workers to invest. They have to get there and back, They pay for transportation and gas is expensive., They have to eat lunches and dress for work. . They have to supply childcare. Do you want to do that for 8 bucks an hour? They are giving a company hours, that they will never get back. They are barely making anything and during a pandemic, they cannot drop their kids off at school.
    When FDR installed the min wage, he said it was a living wage. He said a company that will not pay a living wage did not deserve to operate in America.
