Whoops, Spain says otherwise. Most economists believe in free trade, no minimum wage, and no rent control. These are the three subjects we agree on the most.
You're the one denying the basic principles taught by all Socialist Econ professors. When the Unemployment rate goes it is because the people with the FEWEST skills lose a job. People that pump your gas or wash your car windows are the first ones who lose their jobs, usually they are teenagers or people without a high school education. Like I said your ideas are all Bullshit, it is young inner city kids with no education that get fired first. Not college educated Economics majors. Don't embarrass yourself anymore, you have no statistics on your side.
So if raising the minmum wage is good why not raise everyone's wages to 20 dollars an hour? There's a reason business owners in the Eurozone are scared to hire new employees.
You lack a basic understanding of the supply curve of Labor. The easier a job is the more the supply curve shifts to the right, lowering the market equilibrium wage.
Lol, he's funny. I guess he thinks my privatized student loans are also make-believe. This guy just wants to live off of other people. Denny doesn't owe him shit.
I thought it was because firing them is (a) very difficult and (b) saddles them with a lot of unemployment benefits. Neither of those two issues are a problem in America, especially at-will states like Oregon.
You're not going to pay high school dropouts 20 dollars an hour, that's the largest reason. And certainly not during a period of stagflation. This administration doesn't want at-will states either, the Wisconsin complaining was pretty clear.
Since the President is accusing Romney of a felony, shouldn't he have his DoJ open an investigation into Bain? Obama is such a petty and small man. He has no accomplishments of his own, so he does what he's always done, which is lie, obfuscate, and slime his opponent. It won't work this time, though. Two of Obama's top bundlers worked at Bain after Romney; if there was a felony committed, we'd already have known about it from them. This Obama guy has lowered the presidency to a level that I didn't think was possible in my lifetime. Hell, at least Bush had surrogates who actually served with John Kerry attack Kerry, while not touching the Swiftboat stuff himself.
They're both almost equally disgusting. Shit Flopney and Obamanation I mean. But what is most disturbing is how the media tries to cover-up for Barry. It is unprofessional and unsavory, not to mention that they're not very good with math.
First of all, very few college educated Economics majors ever actually have had to work for a living, nor do they have any real knowledge of the lives of the middle-class. Secondly, with no factual reference to support your claim(?) using Spain (a constitutional monarchy) as an example of how the American economy (no similarities at all) would theoretically work once again demonstrates you're just padding your post count by typing jibberish.
The entire idea of the WTO is not supported by "most economists". The entire idea of the WTO is to exploit the common man and attain global domination for the 1%. If you actually had any education in economics you'd know that much at least.
And people at McDonalds work even harder than you do. It doesn't make you smarter. In fact I think you're spoiled, most people would kill to be a lower class citizen in the USA. You strike me as a whiner that doesn't care about state insolvency. California is very similar to Greece, and within a decade the US will be fucked. The US is six years away from having Greek sovereign debt levels. http://reason.com/archives/2011/12/08/america-is-just-one-decade-away-from-tur The WTO has over 150 members and Spain is one of them. http://www.wto.org/english/thewto_e/whatis_e/tif_e/org6_e.htm WTO is headquartered in one of the most capitalist countries in the world and its goal is to promote free trade, even the Euro-zone believes in it.
I'll just take out my Economics textbook then. Yes we agree with free trade, you're just bitter. http://ew-econ.typepad.fr/articleAEAsurvey.pdf
Obama's buddies at Bain said he's full of shit. That won't stop Barry from desperately trying to slime Romney. Hell, Obama probably knows more felons than almost anyone in DC. He bought his house from one!
