people stupid enough to eat that kind of filth can pay a bit more

It's not about the results of my job, it's about what I have to go through. three people shoving 200 people through drive thru and another 50 people through the inside registers during the hardest hour of business is worth $45 you cheap motherfuckers.

some fast food joints have good enough service/staff for 15 before tax..

it's when you start getting into the urbanized areas the quality of everything drops.

i know a mcdonalds, where 15 for their workers would be fair.. and i know another less than 20 miles away, where min wage is more than enough..

it's the WORK put into it damnit..
that's what has value.

I actually own a restaurant, and pay 15 an hour. Because when you pay minimum wage that's what you get, the minimum a person can do. I'd rather pay more for better employees, because they make a better product...which leads to happier customers, which leads to more customers, which leads to more money. See how that works.

Henry Ford paid the equivalent of $15.25 per hour to work an unskilled 8-hour shift 5 days a week starting in 1914.

It's not impossible to get a $15 minimum wage; you just need to convince the guys at the very top to want to do it freely.

Well its called price equilibrium. At some point the amount you spend vs the amount you can make will grow apart. But, where i am is a tourist town with a high cost of living. So, that means fewer people willing to work low paying jobs. I wouldn't be able to find people to work for $8 an hour here.

Literally not an issue unless you're a fat fuck that's addicted to McDonald's and can only afford McDonald's at their current prices. I immediately question why someone would actually give a fuck if they did pay 15 an hr, do you think that would be the tipping point for an already wrecked numerous time economy? Ffs

slide thread

Money is evil. People should work out of the kindness of their hearts to help their fellow man. We have more empty houses than homeless people, grocery stores throw away food while people starve, some are born into enormous wealth while others struggle to keep shoes on their feet. 15 an hour isnt going to fix anything. Changing the hearts and minds of the people to recognize that yhe elite are enslaving us and that we should care more about eachother instead of fighting to get our own little hoard of treasures will inevitably help the individual in the longrun anyways.

I think they said that a $15 minimum wage would raise prices by somewhere between 5% and 25% depending on the study. That seems distinctly uncrippling as price changes go compared to the boost you'd get from all the minimum wage workers having more money to spend.

America is a rich country. We can never imagine this here.

Question for all the economics majors who post here. What happens when you increase the amount of money a person earns? What would a a dollar be worth if every person had an equal amount? What happens when population out paces economic growth?

Im truly interested in what the brught minds of today have to say on this.

I worked at a mcdonalds for 5 years, and it was actually the other way around for most people.

they thought that they were getting just one slice of cheese, not 1.5 slices.

How many homeless people live that way by choice? I know several who I have tried to employ at my auto body shop. How many stopped showing up? In my city, all people who were homeless were offered temporary housing to remove them from a local area. 10% accepted the offer. Why is that? Why do the homeless not use crosswalks when wandering around where I live, creating traffic jobs. What would you say the is the level of compassion for others in the average homeless persons heart? Why do homeless people become homeless in the first place? How do they subscribe to the social compact? What efforts are they making to better themselves and what free, charitable work are they willing to do?

Went to Burger King for the first time in like 15 years. Went trough the drivethrough. Back on the road I started eating. There was no meat in my burger, only sauce and a slice of cheese.

>literal kindergarten baby-tier "logic"
Expecting people to operate out of the goodness of their hearts and human generosity is dangerously naive. Without strong personal incentive, why would anyone strive to work 80 hours a week to become a surgeon, stay up late nights to power companies that keep the lights on for everyone, or wade in literal fecal matter to keep our plumbing systems going? The goodness of their hearts? Some belief in the greater good of all? Please. Even the fucking Soviets created an incentive system : be a good, obedient, successful worker and get rewarded with Party power, prestige, and privileges, be a lazy, inefficient one and get sent to gulags. Your idiotic belief in everyone being equal and helping each other would result in a collapse of society and a return to feuding tribes, ironically creating the same conditions of inequality, exploitation, and violent oppression you wanted to prevent. Money and inequality is a necessity for society to function, and idiotic dreamers like you with no experience in the real world will never be able to come up with a better system.

You said you wanted the cheese on the side.

Come to Texas, white man.

Supply and demand. You'd get $15/hr in Denver or Austin right now. Not so much in the rustbelt or places with a bazillion niggers

It's not a major price increase because increasing the price won't be the only thing they'd do. They would also start firing many workers, making those who stay do more work, or even limiting their hours. Customers won't be the only ones they'd pass on the operating costs to.

Really? I would have thought you'd be employing the minimum number of workers necessary anyway, if they downsize much they're going to make quite a few less sales to all these minimum wage workers with more money in their pockets. Australia has a much higher miniumum wage and they have only slightly higher unemployment rates.

From $9 to $15 yields a great boost in employee effort, but the same step from $15 to $21 doesn't, so on and so forth.

The minimum wage was raised so people could afford to live there. Housing prices have sky rocketed in the past few years so even at $15 an hour people still can't afford to live there. The minimum wage debate is a distraction. A bone to throw the masses while the ones who run the city laugh. The government needs to regulate real estate investors and speculators or we could raise minimum wage to $50 an hour and still not be able to afford to live there.

The corporate shills on here believe that hard working Americans should be paid slave wages so that a few wealthy elites at the top can get all the money

Wal-Mart has a profit margin of 1.77%. They made like 9B profit over the past year, sure, but on $500B of revenue.

If you took their entire net income and divided it equally among their employees they'd each get an extra $4k per year, at the cost of crippling the future of their employer

I agree Seattle and Vancouver and a lot of the west coast have a huge problem with housing speculation and foreigners buying up housing. That is separate from minimum wage.

Housing should not be allowed to be an investment, a commodity, a speculative instrument. Shelter is a basic human need. There are trillions of $ worth of bonds, stocks, currencies, precious metals that people can invest in. Housing should not be one of them.

Walmart made $37 billion in PROFIT in the last 3 years. You just admitted that they can easily afford to pay their employees more.

Also most of u corporate shills don't understand don't even understand how corporate taxation works. Companies write off all their costs, and only pay taxes on what's left over. So wtf is stopping a corporation making $10 billion in profit a year form paying their workers more?
