Seattle Becomes First American City With Absolutely No Fucking Problems At all



The fact that lawmakers don't understand how basic economics work astounds me. Actually no it doesn't.

I used to get down about this, thinking they were stupid.

Then I realized that they aren't neccessarily stupid, they just like getting elected and being in power, so they do whatever they need to do to make that happen.

That's when I realized they were essentially evil people who pretend to be doing a "service" for their neighbors in order to justify their ceaseless pursuit of unearned (read: bestowed by ballot) power over those same neighbors.
 
Well, I hope the monthly EBT deposits are going up too, or else there's going to be hell to raise.

I'm sure those EBT card owners will be expecting a raise out of this too.
 
and...the exodus begins!

The core issues of Sawant's campaign were a minimum wage increase to US$15/hour, a "millionaire's tax" or income tax on wealthy Seattleites, and rent control.




I guess she's all for people being able to earn a "living wage" provided they don't earn that fucking wage by renting property.
 
Yup I'd have no prob with this if states/cities weren't also supported by the fed gov. It'd be great actually if states could conduct experiments on different isms and ways of living w/out other cities/states having to bail them out if they fuck up. But that's impossible now since we're all so beholden to the almighty Fed gov and it's taxes and supposed 'protection'.
 
SOME OF YOU WILL MAKE $15 AN HOUR

SOME OF YOU WILL LOSE YOUR JOBS AND GO ON WELFARE







VOTE FOR ME TO FIND OUT WHO GETS FANCY AND WHO GETS FUCKED.

I remember in other thread some fat neckbeard was neckbearding about how "the companies won't just axe half the employees that they've got new responsibilities if they don't want to get replaced and keep their $15 an hour".

time to shave the neckbeard - as soon as McD's figures out how to plop out the sandwiches and fries with robots - I'm going to laugh:

Well there will be a real world example of what happens when you crank up the minimum wage, should be interesting to watch what happens. See which predictions come true.
