I had to scroll to the bottom to see this. This is what happens every time the wage increases. No point in increasing the wage when everyone else increases the price. Can't agree with your statement more.

Chaosl3gion ,

You mean those guys who raise the price afterwards?

Chaosl3gion ,

Do you have a source for these findings? Because the last 20 years I've lived through minimum wage increases, each time it led to the increase in the cost of living.

Chaosl3gion ,

I'm simply asking for a source and your reaction is to be a dick? Smooth. Also, you're only referring to the federal wage increase. States have had their own minimum wage increases throughout the years and each time, the cost of goods would rise, causing the boost in minimum wage to fall flat eventually - and that's what the original guy was referring to.

Chaosl3gion ,

Yeah, those guys - which is why there should be a limit on what those guys can and cannot do. Which is what's being discussed.

I never mentioned anything about my feelings, I asked for a source, and you instead acted like a child about it. The internet doesn't need more assholes around, so if you're going to act this way - just don't bother responding. It's not hard to just move on. Why are you so against stricter policies being placed on the wealthy to ensure they can't just hike up prices whenever a wage increase is introduced, anyways? You know what, don't answer that - you're a douche. Enjoy your miserable life - it must be a sad life if you have to act like this towards someone looking for answers.

No, I responded to someone's comment within this post, and that's what is being discussed. And they, and myself, are for increased minimum wage, he said it plainly and I said I agreed with him. I also agreed that we should have restrictions placed to prevent the rich from increasing prices on everything else just because the wealthy know that everyone got a base raise. I never said inflation is caused by a wage increase, you came to that conclusion on your own. Republicans also dislike restrictions on the wealthy, which it sounds like you're not a fan of it either.....are you a Republican?

Chaosl3gion ,

Again, I didn't say we can't raise wages. I said I was for it. What prerequisite was mentioned that would stand in the way of increasing the minimum wage?

In my state, if being boiled alive was up against Biden, I can vote for a third option, or not at all, and Biden will still will. So, it really depends on the state you're in. Furthermore, telling other people how they should cast their vote and trying to guilt them into voting one person over the other is not only pathetic, but also very un-American. If you're in a swing state, vote for who you want and ignore the keyboard warriors who are going to do nothing about it anyways.

Obviously each party has to convince the masses who to vote for. And obviously this is done via news articles and televised debates. But you know damn well I was referring to random clowns on social media telling other people what to do with their vote. No one's opinion here or elsewhere matters. And if I were new to American elections, I wouldn't have mentioned swing states and the importance of knowing what your vote can do if your state is not a swing state. And no, his comments were not trying to convince people to not vote for Biden - he just said he wouldn't vote for Biden - and that's his choice with his vote. I thought it was pretty clear.
