Agreed. As I posted earlier I’m wouldn’t be surprised if hedge funds are behind the push for minimum wage increases. Degrading companies to exploit short positions is a lucrative game.

Obviously I don’t care about CD forum user’s opinion of me. LI isn’t sending it best and brightest here to debate honestly. Although there are some great, thorough posters.

There is no coincidence hate crimes on Asians have jumped over the last year with all the rhetoric from the past administration. There’s no reason to defend a certain group, it’s pretty strange you even brought them up.

Lol you said it!

FYI Have you even seen many of the perpetrators of these so called “Asian hate crimes”?? Let’s just say they aren’t the MAGA types you hope they are.

Try laying off Vox and buzzfeed for 5 seconds and maybe go read a Dr. Seuss book.

Nope. Sorry. Your ridiculous posts are endless entertainment. Also when you post blatant lies like suggesting it’s a bunch of MAGA hats running around assaulting Asians en masse (which is absolutely not the case) I’m going to call you out. Might I suggest a safe space?

Also feel free to put me on ignore if you can’t handle it.

You’re obsessed. I never mentioned MAGA. You guys are very defensive of your cult. It’s sad and I don’t want to participate in a back and forth insulting each other. Quit harassing me you big bully! You’re off the clock!

LOL! You absolutely did. The post is gone but you blamed the so called hate crime wave on Trump. But whatever.

In other news on the original topic 15/hr seems all but dead

Same with your 50% top tax rate. Let all them leave & we can all jump on the government plan. Hey, I’m not saying you’re wrong. Unfortunately, that’s the economic system.
Fair reply. The thing is we had the best and brightest from around the world coming here and we were the manufacturing engine of the world. Now we mfg less than 10% and have jobbed out middle class prosperity to Asia. Top it off with the 50 year starving of our education system (maybe not LI's ponzi education enterprise), but the rest of the country has had budgets gutted for decades, moving money to parochials and charters (who can teach who they want, what they want...although I don't think our bible studies are competing well with China's STEM programs, d'oh). That is why Harvard is turning away Asians now, Americans need the affirmative action!

Again, red herring. We HAD THOSE TAX RATES AND WAY HIGHER during the greatest waves of prosperity in our history. That IS the reality, not the anecdotal scare tactics. Support the middle we get explosive growth and soaring GDP. Support the top and we get quick market volatility, long recessions and rapidly developing 3rd world middle classes at the expense of our own. Look it up.
