Re: Trump Will Beat Hillary In New York If He Is The Republican Nominee..... [Re: starfire_xes]

I'm not sure what that that statement even means. NY, Illinois and California are the bluest states in the country. Despite whatever polls people spout about, the real polls have Hillary beating Trump by double didgits  nationwide. I'm pretty sure about Pennsylvania and most likely Ohio. Florida is always up for grabs, but Texas is the only Red state that has big time electoral votes.

    A Democrat against a Republican is one thing and I understand that debate. Trump is another thing entirely. I really think all he cares about is getting better ratings in his next reality TV show.

Apparently, you think a 40% increase to the minimum wage which will help about 40% of the country isn't worth a temporary increase of 0.3 in unemployment.  :facepalm:

Once again, I can't wait to see your evidence that that Berkeley is losing jobs from the minimum wage.  :popcorn:




Minimum wage goes up.  They lay people off.  Seems pretty evidentiary to me.  If you have to cut the budget you have two choices.  Cut pay rate or cut number of employees.  Because cutting the pay rate is not an option they have to cut employees.



Those aren't the only options by a long shot.  You can raise taxes, you can raise tuition, you can cut salaries of people at the top...

If you are in the work force for more than 6 months and are still making minimum wage you are a fucking loser who doesn't deserve more.



40% of the country makes less than the real 1968 minimum wage, and I can assure you many of those people work their ass off.

The minimum wage reached its (inflation-adjusted) historic high in 1968, when it was raised from $1.40 to $1.60 per hour. Adjusted for inflation using the BLS online inflation calculator that would come to $10.55 per hour in 2012 dollars.Jul 24, 2012




UC is already raising tuition  http://news.berkeley.edu/2014/11/20/regents-approve-five-year-tuition-hike-plan-for-uc-students/

Raise taxes?  Even more?  California is losing business already because of their taxes. 

http://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2015/feb/17/editorial-businesses-flee-californias-high-taxes-a/

Helping 40% will hurt 100% in increased prices and another large cohort in total unemployment due to layoffs.



I have no doubt that California is losing business due to taxes. I live in Illinois; nothing more needs to be said.
But Berkeley, will not suffer. They are not local, regional, or even national. They are world class. They will be, as always,  rejecting a high number of really smart kids. A top 5 or 10 University in the world.
    Now California as a state is another matter. Besides the fiscal issues (which are huge), they for 60 years have been mostly seeing population increase in the part of the state that has a huge water shortage.
