Yes child, I'm centrist and I don't swing to either extremes because it's stupid. Move along little child, your armchair analysis and blatant ignorance of the industrial revolution and the abuses done by industrialists against laborers is laughable.

@Landrar Economists everywhere? No, only a few schools namely Chicago and Austrian schools of economics warned about the housing bubble in 2002-3. The fact that there were other economists 'screaming' warnings about housing bubble in 2005 were people like Krugman who said the government should create a housing bubble.

@Sniper2008009 Coming from the person who has done absolutely zero research about the industrial revolution and history it is plain to see that you have not reached past grade school level education in those subjects. The fact that you compare apples to oranges rather than oranges to oranges and apples to apples. In point of fact you say all of these 'terrible things happened' and yet you completely miss out on the fact that 40 years prior people worked all day doing their job. Mirror again fool

@Sniper2008009 Centrist? You kidding me? You have argued here that the minimum wage is a great thing that that it should be raised. You say you are a 'centrist' but your philosophy has pushed towards more and more socialism. It's obvious that you don't know how to do comparative analysis. The fact of the matter is you can't take what we have now and compare it to 100 years ago and say oh man the factories were terrible. That's obvious to anyone. However, was 100 years ago better than 150? yes.

I live in California, and I can't tell you how many times I've seen perfectly good crops which had already been grown get destroyed because the landowners can't afford to pay the workers to pick them.

@mxdirector What do you think the law is enforced with? Feathers and pixie dust?

You're deep in denial.

The MW law is not "avoiding the exploitation of people" the MW law IS exploitation of people.

It exploits the both employer's and employees inability to fight back, and it exploits your ignorance and delusions.

@jeffiek

Wow. You believe in avoiding the explotation of people so hence you believe in violence. I can't even understand that leap. so Wow.

[jeffiek]

@mxdirector I replied to the correct post.

YOU fail to see what the minimum wage does. It BANS people from working for anything less.

YOU fail to see that this is accomplished with force ( even to the point of imagining that I wrote guns ).

YOU believe this is good. Therefore, you believe in violence. Possibly out of ignorance, not knowing what it is you do, but you believe in it.
