    Its not that simple tho. I'm a nerd and an economics student. The increase in costs we are talking about is in cents. Further it gives more purchasing power to the lower incomes allowing them to buy more which is obviously better for businesses.

    The past few years inflation has risen at roughly 3% min. Wage has been stuck at 7.25 for almost 10 years. So, 7.25 in 2009 is 30% less than what it is now.

    Bro you're 41 years old. Your entire identity is about being part of a great college football team 20 years ago. You're definitely the type of loser to wear your varsity jacket to HS football games.

    What'd she say that was wrong? Dude grew up in Miami, FL and Macon, GA.

    Very common misconception. In parts of the countries that have risen their minimum wage they've gradually increased it. Many states begin with a min. Wage for small companies and one for large ones, then every year or two raise those by a $1 until you hit your target.

    This is such a stupid argument. One is actively trying to negotiate a ceasefire the other advocates for completely destroying Gaza.

    Gonna drink 5 beers and text my College Dems group chat that the Obama administration wasn't hawkish enough with the Syrian Civil War.

    The double standard isn't a male female thing, rather a partisan line. Whenever a GOP politician does something like this they fight it, when caught in the act they pretend "to find God" and refuse to resign.

    It is cringe. Less than 5% of native spanish speakers use it, it doesn't even make sense in spanish and is very weird to say. Latine, is different and fine. But, yes the masculine plural is the grammatically correct plural of any group with multiple genders.

    Informing Europeans that their food is mostly mid with a few hits is my favorite hobby.
