    Yeah minimum wage should be quadrupled at the least. But I think the US should have a 50 dollar minimum wage.

      50? Wow.

      That’s more than I make. I mean, I’m not opposed to the idea, but it would be an excuse from every capitalist out there to go crazy with inflation.

      We’d probably end up worse off on the end but I wouldn’t mind as much because my house is already mortgaged.

        They’re already going crazy with inflation. We’ve got nothing left to lose by trying it. And when teenage burger flippers at McDonald’s are making 50 an hour, you can go to your boss and ask for a raise with a very good argument. How would you like to make 80 or 100 an hour?
