50 dollar minimum wage

The higher minimum wage would just raise the cost of living and make it a two class system. This would make it to where you have the system of politicians and millionaires versus everyone else. Currently nurses make between 25 and $75 per hour. This would put an annual wage of about $100,000 which is more than teachers law enforcement and most any other worker currently makes without overtime.

@OogieBoogie when they raise minimum wage they do not raise everyone's wages comparatively this means everyone that's making $50 or less per hour all of a sudden are down the minimum wage why would you want to be Nerf or any profession when you can make just as much for some burgers at McDonald's
@dale74 ah well....let em starve then eh dude.

@OogieBoogie feeding the poor is what we do to help those less fortunate when the government takes it from you by force and then redistributes it then you are not sacrificing yourself you're being forced to sacrifice there is a big difference. If let's say you have a child and you and your spouse separate yet she still provide a house for them to live in money for food and clothing that is you sacrificing to provide for your child in the caregiving parent. When child support steps in they base everything on money and they provide a percentage of your check to the other spouse that percentage may actually be far less than what you were already providing but there's a difference one you were doing it because you care the other one because you are forced there is a huge difference.

@dale74 because being Nerf is awesome and flipping burgers sucks?
@dale74 whatever man.
Apparently your axe to grind is with the poor and not the government .
You choose how you view the world .
