Bcoz:

 

When normal working people desire wage increases it's called Liberalism.................

 

when CEO's and Executives award themselves multi-million dollar bonuses it's called Free Market Capitalism.

That's a bunch of B.S. 100% CEO's and the like bonuses and salaries are way out of wack.

 

Are you saying they should lower a CEO's salary from 10 million to 5 and trickle the pay down to others?

 

By the time it reaches the burger flippers, it won't be much.

 

 

Wouldn't it be great, if everyone at a company were a true team and everyone had the same salary? Bonuses would have do be different based on what you did.

When you have CEOs and Executives making the majority of the money, off the backs of workers - it's a recipe for poverty.

 

Unfortunately for the regular Joe working people, the rest of the world doesn't offer a "flipping burger" discount on the cost of goods. They don't care you make minimum wage, they're still going to charge you full price to function in society.... Minimum wage in Texas is $7.25 - that's about $1258, before taxes..... Apartments here go for about $900 for a decent, 600 sq. ft. apartment.... Assuming you don't chose to have electricity, a car, a phone, medical insurance, or food - you should be fine, have about $50 left over each month....... and then when these people apply for State and Government assistance, the multi-million dollar bonus crowd cries bcoz they have to pay for food stamps.

It's called Cost of Living. Something that in the last 40 years has stagnated among the middle class.

Decent 620 square feet, that close to an oxymoron.

This feels like the type of revolutionary technology that hasn't been seen since the invention of the combustion engine. Get on board now.

I'm just thinking that's 600 or 620 seems really small, don't think I ever lived in an apartment that small in my apartment dwelling days.

Not what I'm saying. Burger flippers are lower class and the min wage has increased to reflect the rises of cost of living, but it's stagnated in the middle class. Hence, middle class people hear 15 bucks for flipping burgers and they are :shocking:, because their wages have not risen commensurately.

600 is actually a fair size for a studio or one bedroom.

 

Flipping burgers was never meant to allow someone to care for a family. It was meant for a HS kid to make some extra cash.

Oh yea, that's small but what a lot of lower end ones go for..... You can find them in the 800's, but nobody making minimum wage is living in them.

Who makes minimum wage?

According to the Pew Research Center:

 

* (In 2015) Less than half (45%) of the 2.6 million hourly workers who were at or below the federal minimum in 2015 were ages 16 to 24. An additional 23.3% are ages 25 to 34, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics

 

* About 20.6 million people (or 30% of all hourly, non-self-employed workers 18 and older) are “near-minimum-wage” workers

I know the solution to these jobs being lost to automation: Let's let in a few million more unskilled, uneducated people from let's say, Mexico and Central America. That should work out well when more and more jobs done by the unskilled and uneducated are replaced by robots and automation. Brilliant!

It amuses me when people try to protest the use of technology, because it Will "save jobs". Like the 1000 people in the country who refuse to use self checkout, even though they have two items and it will save 10 minutes. Yep, you're saving jobs buddy. Keep thinking that.
