Agreed. Minimum wage will be gone, corporate slavery will become the law of the land, kids will have to work 20 hours a day and failure to shop at the company store will be capital punishment. Obamacare will be repealed and you'll pay for your flu shot by working the emergency room on your time off. Meanwhile, you'll need to learn Mandarin because well ... you'll need to help them figure out their cable bill.

All for sale, all for sale, all for sale while everybody's paying attention to "Muh rights" and management will be sacking yours. I'm already seeing that in the industry I'm in, all hail Goldman Sachs. May I take your order?

The headline is a bit deceptive. This isn't the worst thing Governor Moonbeam did, apparently.

It'll have to suffice for ya, it's still early in the week. California's actually doing rather well now that the republicans, and their sympathizers, have moved to Utah where they belong.

Well ya see? That's the difference between California and other places. Hispanics are relatively welcome there, it's red staters that are the problem. You cling to conservatism, right?

False...although coming from you, that's no surprise.

Texas is very welcome to Hispanics - always has been - and we're going to have a Latina First Lady in 6 week. Our population is almost 40% Hispanic.

Naaa, never happen, we're too focused on living in the past in things no one in California cares about.
But I guess this does follow with the ban on the American flag in schools, and on military aircraft...

"The [meso-american] race", translated to english, technically likes not to be lumped into said group.
The same white people who invent all sorts of generic races are winning the war to lump everyone together though.

I'm in favor of abolishing the minimum wage and going to a guaranteed minimum income scheme.

In the absence of that, I'm in favor of raising the minimum wage.

So why aren't you actively advocating among your peers and hassling your RW radio hatespeakers about this? Hearing it from their own will do more to promote necessary change than just whining on some internet board will. Tell THEM and their advertisers especially, that you, as one of them, do not support the RW position on this issue.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Negative_income_tax:

In economics, a negative income tax (NIT) is a progressive income tax system where people earning below a certain amount receive supplemental pay from the government instead of paying taxes to the government. Such a system has been discussed by economists but never fully implemented. It was developed by British politician Juliet Rhys-Williams in the 1940s[1] and later by United States economist Milton Friedman.[2][3][4]

Negative income taxes can implement a basic income or supplement a guaranteed minimum income system.

In a negative income tax system, people earning a certain income level would owe no taxes; those earning more than that would pay a proportion of their income above that level; and those below that level would receive a payment of a proportion of their shortfall, which is the amount their income falls below that level.
