Minimum wage should get you the bare minimum. No children, no savings, just the least possible to get by

Sounds like we’re just punishing people who work full time for not being able to find a better paying job for no reason

No, we’re rewarding those who have the merit and capabilities to find a better paying job

Thats not fair logic. No one is saying that minimum wage should get you a penthouse and steak and lobster every night for dinner. But minimum wage should allow you the ability to live comfortably and create the foundation for you to begin to move up.

A better paying job is still a reward?? Even if everyone on earth can live comfortably???? I do not need others around me to suffer to feel rewarded and you should feel the same????????

Also what happens to minimum wage workers with kids? You saying that those kids shouldn’t grow up with enough money to be sustained? That is not a healthy take. Holy shit that’s so dystopian

It’s not called live comfortably wage, it’s called minimum wage. It should be the minimum wage

It’s not called “live uncomfortably wage” either. Why do you think this is a good idea? Who benefits from it?

Too late. Now what? What happens to those kids?

So poor people can’t have kids?? Your logic doesn’t work in the real world and poor people are more likely not to have access to contraceptives and abortion care let alone sex ed

Merit biased societies don’t work in a capitalist economy bc merit is only measured by productiveness which is insane and why Americans are some of the most unhappiest people in a first world country

Answer my earlier question please. Who benefits from a system that deliberately makes the minimum uncomfortable? Why do you want that in a society? What do you think it will promote?

Motivate people to be the best they can be. People that earn and deserve more than the minimum will get it

Back up your statement with smth bro and actually psychology has already proven that it’s not true people want a purpose they want a goal they want to be needed in some way it’s just not realistic to say everyone would just sit on their ass

People who deserve more than the minimum get less than the minimum every day, dude. Everyone around me busts their ass every single day and they can barely make ends meet. Are you suggesting that they’re only in that position because they don’t deserve any better? Have you constantly spent your life around people who only do the bare minimum? Haven’t you met volunteers? Advocates?

Yeah there are tons of poor people who work full time jobs and still volunteer to help out their communities #2 just lacks life experience

I make more than 3x minimum wage in my state and I would still barely afford to be able to raise a kid if I were to have one rn. I’ve met people who make a lot less than me but work way harder and do a lot more
