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!

How can you expect "American students" to become engineers while they

what an IDIOT!! HAHAHAHA!!

they glorify wall street. 25% of all college freshmen major in
business


Poor statistic but expected.

Business students have opportunities in money laundering and government.


exactly. the very fields you worship and adore

Engineering students have opportunities overseas.


exactly. we produce things. and expect to be paid a living wage.

you think only those who steal a billion are worthy of a decent
lifestyle

You explained nothing about a viable solution. You just ranted about

I've never use the term "taking back the country." That's a mindless
political rant that must appeal to the waddling masses or it wouldn't be
repeatedly used.


which is why american conservatives use it

read only US newspapers?


Yes, daily, the editorial and letters to the editor pages - they're
hilarious.


glad to see you laugh at your fellow fascists.


News is available in the US in only about 5 of the major papers. It's not
available at all on television except when a station rebroadcasts a BBC
program.


correct.


no one here reads the 'economist'. a pity. but america is very right
wing so people aren't interested in facts


Most "Americans" buy news magazines at a grocery store or 7-11 checkout
line. That's why they "think" like they do. 98% just look at the pictures of
Bill Clinton on the White House lawn with aliens.


yep. that's why conservatives o utnumber liberals by 2:1.

No you didn't, but it seemed like that was the next comment.


We're in a recession. They've happened before. The current administration
is
doing all it can (anything less would be political suicide) to turn
things

around. The Dems in Congress are doing _some_ of what's needed, e.g., the
last effort was today with the small business loan bill that Obama
signed.

They aren't doing enough and are afraid of their own shadow for a couple
of
reasons.


One in particular is that they have no clue. All the government can, and
should do, is structure to encourage outoput, not increase taxes, pay the
debts of irresponsible sub governments, and finance lessons to jungle
dwellers on how to wash their dicks after they cornholed another jungle
dweller. You should be ashamed of your government. How will they pay for
this crap??? No problem, YOU pay for it. Increased long term high wage
emplotyment? ZIP. No reason, ior need, for productive output to expand in
the U.S.


They (both sides) certainly have a clue. They know what to do. I've outlined
it in the last post.

So, now you're claiming productivity shouldn't increase? Do you want to pick
one and let us know...

We need to continue along the path of economic reform. We need to
reintroduce and reinforce regulations that have been removed, gutted, or
ignored. We need to reduce the military budget in a responsible way (we
don't want to add to the unemployment roles by dumping a bunch of people
on
the street), we need to continue to extricate ourselves from two wars, we
need to stop funding some of the European/Asian military bases,


EXCELLENT

we need to

expand healthcare coverage, tax the top 2% more, reduce the size and
scope

of the biggest banks, increase our infrastructure funding, and most
importantly stop listening and start ignoring blowhard naysayers and
fundamentalists.


Well, you were doing well, but you screwed up on the increase in welfare.
75% of the population on handouts is already far too much.


Nope. Not even close. This is where you screwed up because you know little
about economics. Food Stamps actually are a great way to boost the economy,
but nobody wants to talk about it. Look it up. It's the perfect pass-through
technique to stimulate business.

Nothing above, unfortunately, would contribute to increased multi level
production.

You should run for office - either corrupt party would be fine - same
theories.


Sorry, but I've never been interested in being in politics.

While we're on the subject, Have you had your colon checked, Plume.
You do seem to be quite anal retentive.
