Deported Mexicans Vow To Flood Into Canada - Immigrating To "The U.S. Is Over,Now It's Canada's Tu

It's true. End all low and no skilled immigration. And foreign worker (Tim Hortons) program. Hurts the bottom 60% of blue collar Canadians so the upper 10% can virtue signal and pat themselves on the back for how charitable they are. While they fuck their fellow country men. Just like America. Land of delusion.

Chicken and egg. Killing cheap labour means prices for the product needs to rise to match the corresponding wage increase to draw local labour in. But nobody will support MCD/Tim Hortons/Fast food etc if prices rise. WTF would pay $10 for a Big Mac meal?

2 only outcomes: 1)Businesses close shop, nobody gets hired. A product or service is lost.
2)Businesses close shop or bleed cash, eventually everyone gets laid off.

If you throw in automation, it doesn't look as bad but each fast food place still needs a few humans in there. Tough scenarios. Either be the lowest cost commodity producer on volume or a high end luxury provider with good margins.

We'll survive without foreign slave labor. We have before. We will again. I'd rather pay a few cents more for my donuts and employ Canadian youth a fair wage, then ship filipinos over and pay them 6 dollars an hour so shareholders can gloat.

Corp America needs to wake up. Their bloated profits are from cheap labor. The top 10% are getting rich while the rest pay to pad the pockets. And the bottom 10% can't even afford their products without government subsidies. No way this is sustainable, somethings got to give. And it looks like it maybe the top 10%, that's why the elite is against the new administration.
BTW isn't a Big Mac meal already close to 10 bucks, and $12 Canadian...

A Big Mac Meal is $5.69 in the U.S. and $5.99 in Canada when doing a google search - https://www.google.com/#q=big+mac+meal+price&*
 
Firstly, I'd like to point out on a trading site where everyone's sole goal is to make money and boatloads of it, ironically we chastise those are making good money in the top 10%. I know I'm a hypocrite, but are you guys aware that you are as well?

Secondly, where I'm at in Canada, the min wage is $11 already. TFWs don't get less then that if at all less. What's a fair wage? $15? $20? Trained forklift drivers are entering at $14/hourly locally, should a MCD front line employee make more than that?

I agree on the fair wage, but one thing everyone on the anti-immigration side doesn't talk about is the fact that the target employee audience of fast food places is the youth. The local youth(Millennials) aren't interested in working for min wage.

So are we supposed to support paying fast food employees $15 an hour(min wage in some places in the US) and eat $15 Big Mac meals? Ludicrous. This $7 Big Mac meal is barely worth it.

You guys aren't convincing me that the "fair wage" is only a couple of cents more in the price, more like a couple of dollars. Nobody is paying up that much for shitty fast food.

Everyone is talking about min wage. How about defining what is fair wage at the very top. Especially when their own employees may not be able to afford their products. Do they really expect to earn 100+ million, do they really deserve that much. When is it too much.

Wage is just a price. It's too high when people can't afford to buy it or it is no longer needed or they can get a comparable product at a lower price. A fair wage is one which is agreed upon by the buyer and seller. A minimum wage is a benevolent function of the government to prevent people from resorting to crime. What exactly would be the purpose of a maximum wage?

How many low wage earners can be employed when an individual at the top is reduced from 150 million a year to 120 million a year. How is their life affected vs how many lives are affected at the bottom when jobs are created with re-channeling corp profits. As you can see I am not just talking about minimum wage but more local employment vs corp savings from cheap foreign labor, or reallocation of profits. How many homes or 100+k cars do individuals at the top need. When does excess become grotesque. Give it some thought, and ask yourself these question. You may never understand unless you've lived with excess.
