Work Reform

A place to discuss positive changes that can make work more equitable, and to vent about current practices. We are NOT against work; we just want the fruits of our labor to be recognized better.
Our Philosophies:
- All workers must be paid a living wage for their labor.
- Income inequality is the main cause of lower living standards.
- Workers must join together and fight back for what is rightfully theirs.
- We must not be divided and conquered. Workers gain the most when they focus on unifying issues.
Our Goals
- Higher wages for underpaid workers.
- Better worker representation, including but not limited to unions.
- Better and fewer working hours.
- Stimulating a massive wave of worker organizing in the United States and beyond.
- Organizing and supporting political causes and campaigns that put workers first.

The irony of you asking for smarts to be considered in regards to a mega billion dollar corp, who can more than afford this change for the entire country, let alone just California, is astounding while you are commenting the stupidest crap about "free markets" in relation to this news. It is hilariously pedantic....
There is literally nothing incorrect with the statement "enforced minimum wages go against the free market philosophy" and the statement itself makes no claim one way or the other about their personal views. It's just pointing out a factually incorrect claim. Ironically enough, your paragraph reply is the hilariously pedantic part
There is a lot wrong with that statement, but one look at your username,tells me I'm not speaking to anyone worth conversating with... pp.boy... pretty on the nose with proud boy huh...
What? Lmao you're insane it's a reference to my big fat hog between my legs. But anyway, please explain how the statement is wrong
Yeah, that adds up... proud boys think they have something to show off when in reality we all laugh at that member you call a penis but is the size of an enlarged clit... no shame bro..
You are on something.
But anyway, back to the conversation. Use your degree in economics (which you clearly have) to explain exactly how state-enforced minimum wages do not directly conflict with the ideas of lassaiz-faire free market economies. Please, be as specific as possible.
