Look, THIS Change could be better for the consumer anyway. if robots make the food then there should be less risk of people spitting in the food we could get our fast food quicker cleaner and more efficiently.

Employed human beings are being replaced by robots.........

That's a bad thing.

maybe those human beings should obtain better skills one of the only thing i can justify huge government spending on is schooling and eduction.

When those people lose their jobs because they've been replaced by robots, guess what will happen when they are unable to take care of themselves & their children...........

More Government spending in the form of subsidized housing, food stamps, medicaid, and public aid payments.

so WHAT would you do??? those people have to be replaced or will be eventually people are not going to stop the march of technology. I think it's become clear that technology increases productivity but it can also decrease the need for human labor.

So what do you intend to do with the masses of laid off unskilled workers who are having less and less access to higher education?

Do you think they're going to sit around twiddling their thumbs in squalor?

Pay attention, i said i have no problem with the government offering people access to better education so that they can find work elsewhere. It would also be cool to me if the government allowed fast food places to get a tax cut if they keep these low skilled workers around for a few years what way things can stabilize for the overall economy, there would be less of a shock when these low skilled jobs finally do vanish.

What you're not getting is that these companies shipping manufacturing jobs overseas...and now fast food companies and banks replacing positions that used to be filled by people with machines and automation... is leading to LESS positions to be available overall to people. Everybody going to college won't create jobs.

do you really think it was to avoid paying the wages

or was it already in effect and now they have a reason

Some people are dumb enough to think these things were just invented yesterday. They been had these machines. It was inevitable

True. They just couldn't implement them without backlash. So with this do you know what they are gonna say?

"Thanks, Obama..."

The two issues are totally different but i do see the similarity in result. People lose jobs which sucks but you cannot artificially keep people employed when better alternatives exist or their jobs are obsolete. We have to face hard reality and make the fair choice
 
The problem is very simple and very inhumane. Productivity has been uncoupled from compensation. The American worker is the most productive worker on the planet but American wages have been flat for 30+ years.

Its no coincidence that this trend started taking hold during the reagan years. His presidency represented the beginning of the end of the great American middle class. 30 years later we still havent recovered and income inequality has gotten worse. From busting the unions to ripping off the american worker that dirty ass cac fucked us all. He fucked over the average middle and working class family like no in American history has done before of since. Thats why the typical gop loving cac worships hos sorry ass. Fuck reagan and everything that dead mothafucka stood for

How about you actually drop those numbers and try making an argument, you passive-aggressive hoe.

What Im gettin at is a bottom of the totem pole job is just that. You cant raise the amount people make there to save them. The cost of living will just go up to compensate they will still be at the bottom without bankable skills. Thats how economics work. Trying to make a bottom job something else is the error. It is what it is. Seems simple to me maybe im just fortunate to understand the reality. But again I do support raising minimum wage but not to where it begins to have negative consequences and backfires due to inflation and inevitable higher prices.

Because what you're missing is the part that wages haven't increased along with the cost of living. There used to be a time where people at the bottom were still able to afford to feed their families and pay a mortgage and have a car. Companies have found a way to charge more across the board, pay less to their employees, and have less employees to pay.

The cost of living has increased and continues to increase... while wages increases have stagnated and that's a path of destruction.

This guy gets it

Research the COL in ya area and compare it to your annual income and I'm sure a lot of you would learn you living below that maintaining line

Don't let the fact that you pay ya bills on time or you ain't struggling fool ya, a lot of us being fucked on our wages. You might be making minimum wage in your position

This is it exactly.

The problem is a lot of people take their insecurities about what they earn and then they project that onto the people earning near minimum wage. It's a very disgusting and selfish mindset many Americans possess. It's the belief that if you raise minimum wage, those workers will have incomes similar to their own. It's not dissimilar from what these corporate cats believe. The thought is:

"Hell no, don't no fucking burger flipper deserve to make $15 per hour when my salary averages out to $17-20 per hour. That will put them in the same class as me."

First of all, not only are you scum underserving of living in this nation, you are also incredibly dense. MOTHERFUCKA THEY'RE GAMING YOU TOO. We all should be making more than we are. It doesn't just begin and end with the minimum wage.

Basic economics dictate that as productivity increases, wages should increase as well. There is no sound reason in saying that the minimum wage worker doesn't deserve to make more than a disrespectful $7.50 an hour but ONE CEO deserves to take all of the profits from those workers and pocket it as a bonus ON TOP of his regular salary.

You guys have been made into sheep following the herd. We're the richest nation IN THE HISTORY of the world... walking around on a day to day to basis could you tell? Only the top 1% of our citizenship possesses that wealth.

Quoted and GOATED.

I would argue that the ONLY reason that this shit flies so much in America is the exploitation of racial animus. If America was ethnically homogenous or at least had racial harmony they wouldn't be able to slip this shit by like they do.
 
Below are the 15 countries with the highest costs of living, according to Numbeo's data. The living costs in each country are measured against a base of 100, which represents New York City's cost of living. For instance, the data show that living in Switzerland is just over 26% more expensive than living in New York City.

Switzerland - 126.03

Norway - 118.59

Venezuela - 111.01

Iceland - 102.14

Denmark - 100.60

Australia - 99.32

New Zealand - 93.71

Singapore - 93.61

Kuwait - 92.97

United Kingdom - 92.19

Ireland - 92.09

Luxembourg - 91.78

Finland - 89.68

France - 88.37

Belgium - 87.2
 
Wage increase should come with profitability not productivity. A CEO makes more because their job when done correctly is more profitable to the enterprise
