Does that data exclusively focus on the last 6 years, with companies reporting profits that put previous years to shame? Going to guess no. Does that data exclusively focus on just the US, or does it add in nations that it would work.

Because here's nvidia. From 2012-2019, they operated at 1 billion a quarter, ended on 3 billion in 2019. They did 68 billion last quarter.

You want me to post a bunch of other stocks? I can and they'll all tell the same story. If wages go up, then these companies are going to increase prices. Have you seen gas? Eggs? The slightest bit that might hurt their proffits gets passed to the customer and then a little more for more profit. Should we talk about how housing costs have gone up? All the houses near my parents, all doubled to quadrupled in "value" on Realtor.com one day. A house that was maybe 112K jumped to 300K in a single day, all over. Or car prices being closer to 100k than 20k.

2018, I probably would have agreed with you. Plenty of evidence in Europe of that working. But, this is America. We have data that shows, unless you solve the root problem first... you've not solved the problem. The recent trends, in America, clearly state that these CEOS, these people who went from maybe having a billion dollars (which is already pretty fucked) to being 100-billionaires to trying to become the first trillionaire.... Maybe, it's time to accept reality and increasing the minimum wage by itself, won't do shit. You'll just have 10$ coffees or $25 Happy Meals.

All you said that you're financially&economically illiterate. Try learning something for a change.
