    Hey Democrats, you want wage increases? How about applying the principles of free market economics.

    Sorry,. I thought you meant by "Free Market Economics," Free Market Economy. I guess it is possible to incorrectly apply free market economics to a non-free market economy, but why would you? A free market economy only exists as an abstract construct in undergraduate economics textbooks. But...

    It seems that you are loving proof that it is going to take an expert.

    Hey Democrats, you want wage increases? How about applying the principles of free market economics.

    The obvious answers are probably not correct, because in fact what is most probable isn't so obvious, but previous hikes in wages can serve as a guide. Assuming your business doesn't operate in a vacuum, there may be adjustments all along the line and your suppliers, customers and competition...

    Sorry, it should be choice one, not choose one. Please excuse my horrible grammar.

    Hey Democrats, you want wage increases? How about applying the principles of free market economics.

    I think the experts, and I doubt any of us qualify, would say your sexual identity is something no one can assign to you but its something that arises naturally from your psyche, and your sexual identity, while almost always agreeing with your biology, doesn't always agree. I am a firm...

    I'm not sure what my side is. Can you tell me? Choose one made me laugh.

    Hey Democrats, you want wage increases? How about applying the principles of free market economics.

    Well the unknown here is how many lose their jobs permanently because of a rise in the minimum wage? Possibly similar wage hikes in the past can be used as a guide. Economists produce various estimates from near zero to some substantial number. I have seen comments in some studies, can't tell...

    Though you quoted me, you must be responding to someone else.

    Hey Democrats, you want wage increases? How about applying the principles of free market economics.

    Raising the minimum wage in the U.S. won't have any impact on the particular circumstance you mention. The problem of offshoring software development will continue. Somethings can't be off shored, of course. or can't be at competitive quality , but software is probably not one of those. Germany...

    Apparently in practice, so far, it hasn't been much of a concern to the people in the locker room.. Who are the predators your concerned about?

    I don't understand this sexual predator argument at all. Is there any evidence that sexual predators are more prevalent among transgendered individuals than non-transgendered? If there is, I haven't seen it.

    Hey Democrats, you want wage increases? How about applying the principles of free market economics.

    That's one of the better arguments. You also have Marx's observation that capital drives out labor, and of course the more expensive labor becomes the more we will see capital displacing it with machines and automation. But these things that will occur are a matter of degree and must be...

    Hey Democrats, you want wage increases? How about applying the principles of free market economics.

    This is something that reasonable people can disagree about. There are arguments on both sides, My own view is that when labor's wages are very much below the true cost of labor, as they are today, raising those wages to a point near the true cost can provide a significant boost to the economy...

    Hey Democrats, you want wage increases? How about applying the principles of free market economics.

    I'll repeat the question for you: "Because you think it is wrong for a transgender person to identify with the opposite biological sex, would you then want, a transgender person in a dress and high heels and long hair and with a female voice, and appearing to at least a casual observer to be a...

    What a great article. Thank you so much for turning it up. Will those who should read it, actually read it? I doubt it.

    Hey Democrats, you want wage increases? How about applying the principles of free market economics.

    You never answered my question. And I know why. It's because there is only one rational answer, and you can't bring yourself to be rational, because it would be an admission that your position is wrong.

    Hey Democrats, you want wage increases? How about applying the principles of free market economics.

    But it is very much Obomneycare, and Obomneycare is very much Heritage Foundation care. How about giving credit where credit is due? What is to be gained by denying the truth?
