We really should not be paying someone $15.00 per hour when they're only worth $7.25 that's what causes inflation, you can see it at every union town.

So you are anti union?
You think someone can live on $7.25 an hour in this country? That is less than $15K a year which is below the poverty line in the US.
You aren’t worth $15 an hour.
No one is intending ANYONE live on that income. Those jobs are stepping stones to a better future and higher paying jobs, usually held by those just entering the work force. Those jobs are not intended for real adults in the real world supporting themselves and a family. Anyone who argues otherwise is totally daft.
Why bother, are you anti-American employees? Unskilled? What would you know about skilled? Tire manufacturers seem to have a starting salary of around $15 an hour and employees can make up to the $60 range for those you probably would call unskilled.

There will always be a poverty line somewhere, you can raise the minimum wage to $100/hr and the poverty line will be above it.

These points are entirely contradictory....

She should be getting the "Waitress" salary with no tips. Serving up the Demonrats BS!
She would still be overpaid.
Definitely am. I don’t care if it’s below the poverty line, if you have to pay someone $15 dollars when they aren’t worth $7.00 than it’s coercive charity.

It appears we are watching a real-time game of chicken between Trump and Xi Jinping. Who blinks first?
Trump just announced a 90 days pause on all new tariffs for all the countries that are coming to negotiate, and a 10% reciprocal tariff on everyone else EXCEPT China. They were just raised to 125%

Don't really care. If Trump ONLY put a tariff on Mongolia, people WILL find a way or a reason to raise prices on just about everything.Wall Street is LOVING IT.
And I just read that the 90 day pause was false info, but Wall Street was taking it as real. So false or not?
