Since it looks like no one can comprise on wither to raise min wage or not I thought we could discuss other methods to help the poor. Maybe a Negative Income Tax, Basic Wage or something else.
If the min wages goes up you will see tons of layoffs.
Many small businesses cannot pay a laborer 10.00 per hour to do nothing.
As far as starving, if you are hungry it would be your own fault.
How about working 2-3 jobs like others and stop whining and wanting fed off the backs of others.
Or better yet, how about working to obtain a skill so you can be more valuable to someone.
Huge mistake to raise min wage because then prices for all of us will go out the roof and more people will be doing the typical Obama thing and going on welfare.
The welfare Prez is going to do it again, drive more voters to the ditch and on the freebie role.

Right work 2-3 jobs so your whole life is spent working like slaves did. I mean its not like people want to spend time with family or friends. Skills are no guarantee of anything as we have seen many people with skills can not find jobs in the fields they got skills in.
I think its obvious that wealth sharing since the 60's has not worked. I think its up to government to make them aware of the future when not taking advantage of education by not promising what society can't give because its basically unsustainable. Read several pieces about Greek politics and conclusion I got was basically not much difference other than a contest for decades of promising more government jobs than the other candidate. Some people actually still believe what politician promise without even looking at reality. Politicians will take countries down the road to failure if you listen to be reelected is evident many time over. Some do not realize its not the middle class shrinking but middle class in US doing so. The middle class around the world is exploding in a world economy that has grown for decades.

Can they afford to pay people $7.75 to do nothing?
Why the absurd assumption that anybody pays anybody to do nothing?

So paying people more will entice them to go on welfare, right?

Reason: rude

Many people are working 2-3 jobs right now and you are not saying a thing.
Reason-- Less hours for many reasons with one of them being the disaster Obamacare crap. Businesses cut hours of employees and forcing people to do more to cover it.
You cannot pay someone to stock a 1.00 at the dollar store 10.00 per hour. Takes no skills and little effort.
next thing you know we will have 5.00 dollar store to cover for it. Right out of your pocket.
Most people want to work certain hour, certain days and wont move to accept a good job. My goodness I had employees who whined about not having enough money to pay a car payment but the lazy butts would not work overtime or weekends because they do not want to work themselves to death. Why not? I worked 70+ hours, 7 days a week for many years to get where I am, and so should those who do not want a handout.
I can make 500-800 cash profit per week and I am doing it right now just enjoying my hobby of antiques. Getting to hunt down treasures and re sell them is what I enjoy as a hobby and my ebay and amazon sales always bring me 500-800 or more per week every single week by just going out a few hours a few days a week looking. Amazon alone last week netted me well over 500 profit itself.
Tell me why are we not having people with skills get high paid jobs right now? What is the reason?

Is a low IQ a requirement to become a registered republican nowadays?
Stop the personal attacks.
For your info those who are going hungry unless they have a medical issue it is 100% their fault period.
For you info, the guy who changed my oil yesterday at a quickie lube place told me he was in a hurry because he has to leave to go to his next job changing oil at wal mart on the late shift.
Stop making excuses.
LOL Making fun of rep IQ is something no lib should be doing knowing who you voted for.
