Should be labeled "Tank at full speed drives near a car". Very disappointing
Just look it up, you guys. Google is pretty cool like that.
Tank drives THROUGH a car.
Technology has moved in that same direction since the first machine was invented, no need to spill misinformation
You are correct that machines have been replacing humans for a while now. However, when minimum wage goes up, the business case for speeding up the replacing process makes more sense.
Raising the minimum wage hurts the worker who earns minimum wage
BS corporate misinformation, pay employees a living wage or they go somewhere else
Wrong. Big businesses can suck up some of the cost, but smaller businesses & franchises run on such small margins that they cut time or employees.
And as for a living wage, less than 4% of all workers (part & full time) are paid minimum wage. And filling these positions is not static: employees are constantly moving upward.
"In the context discussed above, we find that minimum wage increases significantly reduced the employment of low-skilled workers." World Economic Forum https://www.weforum.org/agenda/2015/01/how-does-the-minimum-wage-affect-employme

A minimum wage job is NOT a living wage. That's what Mally is saying. It's a stepping stone in the job world before moving up to other more skilled jobs as you become increasingly skilled. Your wage then follows. In Canada, minimum wage went up a lot. Many businesses closed or let employees go because they couldn't afford to keep all them on. Keep a few employees or close altogether. It puts everyone in a hard place. With higher income, you pay more taxes. Your net pay at the end isn't really that much more.
wtf is a "living wage" and "reasonable" hours. it's subjective BS. Plus if you ran a business with employees for once in your life you'll learn that and employers pays wages for work or time accomplished. they aren't responsible to pay your bills.
