Why should you (or anyone else) get a raise?

because it's good for the economy, moron.

No it isn't, it decreases profits.

hey idiot. you can only make a profit if you SELL SOMETHING. do you
know this right wing depresssion we're in?

it's because people arent buying. and they're not buying because they
havent had a raise in 40 years

you really are stupid

Raises are granted as a result of
exceptional performance, an increase in responsibility

bull****

(there's a dirty word
to you) and in socialist structures, inflation.

i love it. i'm for a decent middle class wage. that makes me a
socialist!!

HAHAHAHAHAHA


Ever heard of earning a raise?
What have you done to improve your capabilities?

why? do you think i'm the ENTIRE middle class?

No, you're probably craving a union to protect you.

gee. countries with unions have a strong middle class

oh. i forgot you hate the middle class


why dont they have the huge spread between the middle class and the
rich that we do?

go ahead. answer the question.

They have a narrower (previously) manufacturing base

proof? oh. none.

, profits are smaller,

proof? oh. none.

the rewards are fewer.

proof? oh. none.

Is that good? That's coming to the U.S. You will get
no more, the owners will be foreign

HAHAHAHAHA!!

do you read what you write??

other countries are in worse shape because they dont let their rich
rape the middle class, and therefore their rich will own the US??

you contradicted yourself in 2 consecutive statements!


ALL is supply and demand.

and what do you need for DEMAND??

MONEY!! wages! salaries...the very thing you think the middle class
doesn't need.

A low supply of unskilled labor increases the pay
as the supply is limited. In countries like red China, labor is plentiful
and in fact, they have an over supply

uh huh. that's why they're getting 15% pay increases!!

christ you are SOOOOO stupid...you have your right wing kool aid...you
dont know much about what's happening in the world...but you h ave
your right wing fables...

- demand is small compared to the
supply, so wages are crap. With low wages, prices are low,

?? jesus you're stupid. in another post you said PRICES are TOTALLY
UNRELATED TO COSTS.

NOW you say COGS determine prices!!

you contradict yourself every single time you write.


so factory labor
in red Chna allows a similar lifestyle as, for example, labor at Walmart,
when prices nose dive in the U.S. They will. Prices are relative to the
ability to buy. People pay U.S. "normal" auto prices for an Asian econobox
becasue people are willing to pay the price. Demand sets the price of
everything, including wages.



which doesn't answer the question about why the rich in the US steal
more money from the middle class than they do in other countries

still dodging the question, eh? your fascist economics can't handle
the simple question.



gee. i was in malaysia 2 years ago and korea this year. used the US
dollar everywhere

Korea has mega billions of exports to the U.S; of course they do. Indonesia
and Malaysia inherited the consumer electronics industry, Japan to Korea to
Malaysia, in the mid to late '90's. The Philippines is not at the economic
scale of Korea and enclaves of Malaysia. Yet. The dollar (US dollar) is
becoming toast. That's not a problem.

gee. if it's becoming toast...then why do they take it in malaysia and
korea?

in this post you contradicted yourself twice and moved the goalposts
about the US dollar.

nice going right winger!
