    @breadsmasher @Amoxtli Aww are the widdle socialists mad that the policies they advocated for got them fired?

    https://www.usatoday.com/story/money/food/2024/03/26/california-minimum-wage-jobs/73107149007/

    Yet for some reason they’re hitting the “I’ll do it again” button 😂

    If these are the people voting in #California, it explains the state that it’s in.

      You’re advocating poverty wages, and “shut up you get what you’re given”?

        @breadsmasher Nope! I’m advocating for policies that would lower the production costs of the goods that are being served, as well as inflation and regulatory costs and fees like taxes, providing greater margins and stability for businesses, incentivizing them to voluntarily raise employee wages.

          So “hahha ask for more get fired” is your way of saying “production costs should be lowered”.

          I don’t believe you have a good grasp on reality. Good day.

            @breadsmasher No, it’s not. It’s my way of making fun of you guys for complaining about something happening that’s due to a policy you support, and then advocating for doing that again. This is downright hilarious, and worth laughing at!

            Everyone laughs at the fool who hits himself in the head with a hammer, says “ow that hurts”, and does it again. Y’all are doing the exact same thing here.

        Increasing minimum wages reduces the value of everyone else’s money. Companies never take a hit from these increases. They always pass on the cost into the product or they shut down locations.

        Every time government increases the minimum wage, the poverty line goes up as well. It’s turns into a never ending inflationary cycle.

        You can’t just increase the minimum payment, because at the end of the day, the money has to equal some type of value. When the government forces a value, it reduces the value of everyone else’s money.

          @djsumdog @breadsmasher @realcaseyrollins Agreeed!

          The other major factor on inflation, WAR SPENDING!

          Inflation is Government created.

        @sunzu @Amoxtli @breadsmasher So you’re telling me that #USAToday is wrong, and fast food workers in #California actually didn’t lose any jobs after the #MinimumWage was increased?

        You dropped this king: 🤡

                @sunzu @Amoxtli @breadsmasher Your rebuttal to “your policies led to people getting fired” is “I think about fast food workers a lot”?

                Go off king 😂

                    @sunzu @Amoxtli @breadsmasher So…your argument is that this is a mere coincidence? That there’s no connection between the increase of the minimum rage and the firing of the fast food workers?
