After each liberal santa spoke one could only conclude,

What you've just said is one of the most insanely idiotic things I have ever heard. At no point in your rambling, incoherent response were you even close to anything that could be considered a rational thought. Everyone in this room is now dumber for having listened to it. I award you no points, and may God have mercy on your soul.

Booooring.

No big topics discussed, why don't they just hand it to Hillary as nobody will go agin' her.

Man, that was a very WHITE stage.

...well, it is the party of slavery, segregation, Jim Crow laws, so par for the course

(that Obama is probably playing on- what is that 300 rounds now?)

We the people passed the Fair Labor Standards Act in 1938. FLSA was a comprehensive federal scheme which provided for minimum wages, overtime pay, record keeping requirements, and child labor regulations. The purpose of the minimum wage was to stabilize the economy and protect the workers in the labor force. The minimum wage was designed to create a minimum standard of living to protect the health and well-being of employees. Others have argued that the primary purpose was to aid the lowest paid of the nation's working to protect them from predatory business practices.

In short, history shows that laws are needed to protect labor.

Now, the devil is in the details. And perhaps the minimum standard of living should be adjusted regionally. But the need remains.

There already is a minimum wage.
Raising it to an arbitrary point in order to predict if someone could "live" on it serves no purpose other than to harm business, reduce man power, and disincentivize learning a skill.
Oh, almost forgot: it would also make bleeding hearts feel good all over.

Brewha,

You are clever by half.

The thing that steams you, is that I am not wrong.
Yours is the party responsible for all those things listed.

Bull Connor and his fire hose was a Democrat
AlGore's father filibustered against the civil rights act in '64, voted against it and proposed a bill to keep schools segregated -Democrat

Are you profiling?

Ahhh the gypsy curse.

Nixon played on my team? that is what you got?

Your party is still the party of slavery and add to it, now they are the party of anti semites.

Nixon was a great ally to Isreal..look what you have now.

Bunch of Palestinian apologists.

Your party started the income tax system.

The only trickle-down was the wealthy pissing down the back of the working class.

Hillary actually is a Republican she's lying about her policies and has been and still is bought by Wall street. If she wins the nomination all the Republicans need to do is not run a complete idiot to win . So far Donald Trump would be the Republicans choice kind of shows how smart the Republicans are .

Of course there is a minimum wage. And if I follow you line of logic, we would all be better off by doing away with it and letting large companies squeeze labor costs ever lower. Fortunately others disagree. If you are believing the buisness "do the right thing" because the markets drive them to, you need to look at history. That's why we have price fixing and monopoly laws.

They don't actually have a wage dart board for selecting wage hikes. They look at inflation, cost of living, standards of living etc. In fact there is by no emotion involved compared to conservative who cry about "big government" and the impending apocalypse caused by wage control for the lowest earners.

Sorry, but I don't see any validity in the negative effects you have sited. In fact since business take profit by a percentage of their costs, as costs uniforms rise they actually see more profit dollars by passing along the costs. They are doing more gross business.
