All the Econ textbooks around here say the same thing. It isn't a shocker, relax people. Economists are very wild and random, so it is surprising...
I get the feeling some people want higher unemployment. It is good for government unions, or postal workers.
Companies hire workers based on the marginal revenue product that they add. Each additional worker brings a potential addition to revenue....
They *wouldn't* be taking full advantage then, if they don't hire more workers. They could be hurting their businesses probably. What happens...
Well the answer to me is simple, populism. Poor people are just as greedy as rich people, and they're uneducated to boot. :]

I didn't give Spain any compliment, I said Spain proved you wrong. Also it is not possible to get healthcare benefits, when companies refuse to...
Yes, they sure are. :O
Lol he doesn't give a shit about highschool dropouts, clearly.
Scary, no wonder the US is fucked.
So what I win anyway. Most Economists don't want to raise minimum wage, and you want $40 an hour. Psycho.
Spain has a great healthcare system, if you have a job. Unfortunately Spain's unemployment rate of 20+% rapes your point. :)
Most economists clearly don't want to raise minimum wage. And governments can't keep anyone from moving.
