Scenario 1) So a person comes with a need for a job and the company cant afford a worker at minimum wage. What happens? He goes without a job, becomes homeless, and eventually dies poor.
Scenario 2) So a person comes with a need for a job and the company cant afford a worker at minimum wage, so they pay him 5 dollars an hour instead of 8. He can Just barely pay the rent at the place he is staying and a unhealthy diet. But he survives, he eventually progresses to a better job, and a better life. Hes not dead.
Where do people come up with these riddiculous quality of life arguments...dead/homeless, or surviving on a cheap job? There isnt even a question there.
The more you increase the minimum wage the more likely you are to force those companys to find cheap labor out of this country since cheap labor isn't readilly avaliable within the states. Outsourcing jobs is imminent with laws regulating pay structures.
Once I heard someone say that the biggest problem was that the adults who currently have jobs would lose them to youth who would work for less. Well maybe its time to up your game folks. A little personal responsibility here. Like all capitalism you either gotta outshine with quality or decrease the cost of your goods. Youth are willing to play it cheap, so you either need to match their price or you need to work at a quality or hours that you would otherwise be unwilling to do.
Capitalism is a simple equation folk. qualityxquantity=Corporation.
