$10.10 Minimum Wage Would Actually Create New Jobs: Study

Quote from Maverick74:

Anyone see Ricter, Piezoe? Where are all these pro-minimim wage hike advocates? Did they just cut and run when facts were thrown on the table?

Clubber Lang from here posted recently, "facts are like a liberal's cryptonite." I'll have to agree.
 
Quote from Lucrum:

I know you ARE bluffing.It not easier for me dumb ass, it's nearly twice as far away. "They" can hold bets anywhere, it don't need to be Vegas moron.No bets but there certainly could be a meeting. But then I've already said that repeatedly. You know I'll show up, it's the reason you're trying to make it as difficult as possible. I'm calling you out chicken shit roofer. You said you were coming to ATL. When?


You ignorant fuck. I'm not going to meet to fight, and it might be good for you that I'm smart that way. But I will meet to wager that I'm smarter than you. But you don't put your money where your mouth is. That place is reserved for your foot.

Which one of you two was the first to use the word "fight"?

After he kept saying how stupid I was I made the offer to wager to see which one of us was more intelligent he then wanted to "box" as part of the deal. But a deal without money, go figure.
Now in person I hope I would walk away, but I've never met as vile a person as him face to face so who knows. I'm pretty good at not spending time around assholes so It would probably would not get that far.

1)Chicken shit and smart are two different things, dumb ass. 2)You said once you would go to the boxing gym with me after your girly man IQ test. Of course you also said you were coming to ATL. Obviously you're not to be believed. But you want me to trust you to show up, in Las Vegas no less?
But I will meet to wager that I'm smarter than you. But you don't put your money where your mouth is. That place is reserved for your foot.
Don't believe you numb nuts. You've already lied about coming here.
Why do we need to wager on an IQ test anyway? Either you're willing to meet for a contest or you're not. Either you score higher or you don't. What's money got to do with it?

Unlike you I don't have life insurance proceeds to "play" with but more importantly I do have a wife to contend with.

You used to be married. Even a dimwit like you should know how that conversation is going to go.

Me: "hey honey, I'm taking $7K out of checking and flying myself to Las Vegas to meet someone in person I met online"

*long awkward silence*

wife: "are you fucking stupid?"

me: (sheepishly) "....well...no...but the guy I was meeting certainly is"

*end of conversation*

You're whole wager in Las Vegas nonsense is just a dodge. Pure and simple.
Not to mention obvious.


You said you were coming to ATL
I said I'd meet you for an IQ test provided we have some fun in the ring afterward.
You'd get what you want, I'd get what I want.
 
You never took the bet Lucrum why are you crying? Arguing about the details of a bet you were afraid to take, what a little Christmas bitch you are Lucrum. Now the bet I'm offering is IQ test in Vegas with a casino holding the bets, you won't take this bet either though but you will still bitch and moan. You're my moaning little bitch.

$10.10 Minimum Wage Would Actually Create New Jobs: Study
http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2013/12/19/1010-minimum-wage_n_4474183.html

Raising the minimum wage would help the working poor and give the entire economy a boost, a new analysis finds.

If the minimum wage rose to $10.10 per hour, as Senate Democrats and President Barack Obama propose, 27.8 million workers would see their wages go up as a direct or indirect result of the boost, according to the Economic Policy Institute, a left-leaning think tank. These workers would take home about $35 billion in additional wages and they would probably spend it, as low-income people living with little financial cushion tend to do.

The result: During the initial phase-in period, the U.S. economy would grow by about $22 billion, EPI found. The growth in the U.S. economy would result in about 85,000 new jobs, according to EPI. That counters arguments from conservative economists that raising the minimum wage could actually hurt the working poor by making employers hesitant to hire more workers. (A notion that’s been proven wrong by some economists and remains hotly debated.)

The analysis is an update to a similar report released by EPI earlier this year. It takes into account the fact that five states recently raised their minimum wage, meaning workers living in those states would feel less of an impact from a federal minimum wage boost than when EPI published the original research in March.

Botton line: I am not buying the results of this study, but it will be interesting to hear what others think.

Exactly what I've been saying. Only you're the one crying.
...Now the bet I'm offering is IQ test in Vegas with a casino holding the bets, you won't take this bet either though but you will still bitch and moan. You're my moaning little bitch.
You changed what you're offering because you realized I'm serious and you were too chicken shit to show up here in ATL like you said you would.
You even admitted you were going to get your ass beat in the ring. You changed what you're offering in an obvious attempt to thwart any chance of a face to face. And you're accusing me of being a bitch? Again, Who exactly do you think you're fooling here?

You're just another typical spineless leftist cunt. Big mouth, right up until it's time to show up.
