4:42 - if minimum wage eliminated poverty, why stop at $7.25

[Qissis]

It's a conspiracy to destroy the so-called Black family: Kill the man and keep the women, brain-wash the women and control the children. Empower the women, lock-up the man,( Utopia for the powers that be) and grief , sorrow and hell for us.

This guy is wrong, a couple of teenagers with money in their pocket is one thing but during todays time we see many jobs filled by grown adults trying to live off of what they make at a grocery store and thus live in poverty. Essentially cutting the wages and hiring more just means more poor and the people that were closer to middle class are now worse off.

@CFALC0N Likewise, if having no minimum wage would mean employers would take advantage of their employees, then why don't employers pay everyone minimum wage? ... Just pay the legal minimum and take advantage. ... Because wages are not arbitrary, they are determined by supply and demand. The minimum wage, on the other hand, is arbitrary and hurts everyone.

Bigger government creates largetr problems for most societies specifically including the black community in the United States. The government is ready to hand out benefits for the Black community which makes the black community easier to fail.

@Qissis I agree to some extent however you need to take race out of your statement.

as it becomes a racist statement. Blacks especially are racist.

Everything liberals attempt to push on us ends up causing 10 times more harm than the good they said it would do.

@Qissis : so don't do illegal drugs, stay working even when you don't feel like it, avoid the BET hip hop mentality like the plague it is, and obtain increasingly lucrative skills at the jobs you do have.

Problem solved, and you both blame and trust the one person you need to blame and trust: YOURSELF, the individual!

Maybe Walter will run for president, if we make it another 4 years.....

This video must go viral so as to educate / warn our citizens of the failure of governments and it's true design! Thank you Walter Williams,

@beigelycheenut The real world is dollars and cents but the money is fiat, therefore, it is not real. Your world is an illusion. Wake the Fuck Up!
