  1. I've argued this fiscal conservatives who claim to understand and study economics. I ask them if they're studying macroeconomics or just basic economics or I ask why Warren Buffett who knows more about the market than most isn't a fiscal conservative and I usually get crickets after asking questions like those. They have no clue about economics.

  2. It's so ironic that fiscal conservatives hate the minimum wage and welfare but they support an economy that puts more people at risk of being in poverty, working minimum wage jobs, and being on welfare. They've got some nice paradoxical political views there.

  3. whyamimrpink THEN they are poor for a reason. Use proper terminology if you're gonna argue something you've been brainwashed by corporate media and Fox News to parrot. I hate to be the grammar Nazi here.

  4. I know what you shared wasn't from Forbes, but it may as well have been. It was bullshit!

  5. He probably is an economics student, but he's just a student. Not an expert.

  6. Here's the really stupid thing about it. The federal minimum wage hasn't been increased in a decade. That's gotta be some new kind of record for not increasing it pragmatically to keep up with inflation. Can't we at least increase it by a dollar an hour more? It's ridiculous. I think Guinness Book of World Records needs to have this amazing feat of not increasing the federal minimum wage because they have broken some sort of dubious record by not raising it.

  8. whyamimrpink78 Do you have a deeper understanding understanding of economics than Warren Buffett does, because Warren Buffett thinks we should raise the minimum wage and he doesn't care that raising it doesn't benefit rich people like himself?

  9. whyamimrpink78 Also, do you think it's a joke that minimum wage used to increase every 5 years or so to keep up with inflation but no longer does so? I think it's a joke. What the fuck is going on with that?

  10. Mexico told Trump to fuck off, so who's paying for the wall?

  11. whyamimrpink Who got paid to write that BS? "Listen, a few CEO's we're in bed with want you to write some lying B.S. articles. Can you do that, Rat Shill Alex Edmunds?" Forbes Magazine is also a steaming pile of shit when it comes to telling lies that only benefit rich people. The only thing I would use Forbes for is kindling for my fireplace in the winter months.
