A place to discuss pro-conservative stuff

  1. Be excellent to each other. Civility, No Racism, No Bigotry, No Slurs, No calls to violences, No namecalling, All that good stuff, follow lemm.ee's rules, follow the rules of your instance, etc.

  2. We are a Pro-Conservative forum. Posts must have a clear pro-conservative, or anti left-wing bias. We are interested in promoting conservatism and discussing things that might get ignored elsewhere. All sources are acceptable, however reputable sources with a reputation for factual reporting are preferred.

  3. Dissent is allowed in the comments, but try to be constructive; if you do not agree, then provide a reason which is backed up by references or a reasonable alternative interpretation of the provided facts. That means the left wing is welcome to state their opinions, but please keep it in good faith.

A polite request, not a rule, if you feel the need to report a comment, please don't reply to it.

You’re advocating poverty wages, and “shut up you get what you’re given”?

[–] [email protected] 0 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Increasing minimum wages reduces the value of everyone else's money. Companies never take a hit from these increases. They always pass on the cost into the product or they shut down locations.

Every time government increases the minimum wage, the poverty line goes up as well. It's turns into a never ending inflationary cycle.

You can't just increase the minimum payment, because at the end of the day, the money has to equal some type of value. When the government forces a value, it reduces the value of everyone else's money.

@djsumdog @breadsmasher @realcaseyrollins Agreeed!

The other major factor on inflation, WAR SPENDING!

Inflation is Government created.

@breadsmasher Nope! I'm advocating for policies that would lower the production costs of the goods that are being served, as well as inflation and regulatory costs and fees like taxes, providing greater margins and stability for businesses, incentivizing them to voluntarily raise employee wages.

So “hahha ask for more get fired” is your way of saying “production costs should be lowered”.

I don’t believe you have a good grasp on reality. Good day.

@breadsmasher No, it's not. It's my way of making fun of you guys for complaining about something happening that's due to a policy you support, and then advocating for doing that again. This is downright hilarious, and worth laughing at!

Everyone laughs at the fool who hits himself in the head with a hammer, says "ow that hurts", and does it again. Y'all are doing the exact same thing here.
