Why do we need the minimum wage again?

Don't just cut and paste part of a sentence and answer your own question.

No dodge at all. I don't live in Seattle and don't run a restaurant, so I have no market information. I would pay them whatever is needed to get a reliable employee that can do a good job.

Amazing how you dodge a perfectly logical answer.

I still can't be believe that a conservative twisted minimum wage debates into liberal blame for gun massacres committed by crazy people.

Wait, actually...yes I can.

And then conservatives wonder why the rest of the world laughs at them and dismisses whatever they have to say.

Well what line of work and market do you understand? Seeing the hypothetical question is lost on you.

Also if you don't know the market, how do you know a dishwasher isn't worth what the minimum wage is?

Well I can't ague with you there, we blue States do spend too much propping up the red states in this country.

Doesn't matter. The Union is a liberal supported org. Who cares if 1 out of 100,000 is a conservative when the entire organization is liberal leaning?

Pick a number, shouldn't be too hard for you to figure out what a dishwasher is worth in Seattle.
That's irrelevant to my point. As long as its under $15, the $15 minimum wage is an artificial support that goes against the market rate.

If that 1 out of 100,000 is the designer of the cars, it matters.

I believe you really ARE confused!
