Exactly. This is what the higher min. wage proponents don't seem to get. Yeah, if the wage is raised, they'll have more money, but their money will end up being worth less because of inflation, and they'll be right back where they started. The people who'll really suffer, are those who are already making 15/ph right now.
Inflation will occur whether the minimum wage is raised or not. Thus this whole argument is a massive fail.
If you were a millionaire, you wouldn't even bother responding to my doubts.
So now you're an expert on millionaires? Such insight must be a gift just like all the "other people's money" you want to suck up. Interesting that the least informed always set their own standards for proving they are right. I haven't seen you be right one time since I started reading this forum.

I'm not going to work my a-- off and be miserable for half my life so i can be rich for only the other half of my life, i'd rather just have a chill minimalist life all my life.
So some billionaires family is more important that yours? You are on a sinking ship and two seats left on a lifeboat , who deserves the seats more? you and a family member or a billionaire and a family member?
Obviously the billionaire because he's already demonstrated his worth to society. People are simply not of equal worth.
Lol...I hate to break the news to you, but becoming a conservative has no degree of difficulty. I can choose to cut my IQ points in half and go sign up at the local Republican Party headquarters at any time.
"Being you" is just that easy.
If you cut your IQ in half it's highly unlikely you could find the local Republican Party headquarters, or the toilet.

Wonderful!!! In one fell swoop you've made the point for this whole thread. I will be eternally grateful for this unsolicited and devastating proof of exactly how true the billionaire's statement was.

Relax, Frances. No one is trying to trick you into working. Go back to playing video games.
