While the workers did experience boosts in earnings overall, the report found the increases would have happened without the higher minimum thanks to the region's growing economy.Yeah, it helped workers overall but those workers would have been helped anyway. Such a statement requires evidence. |

Not an unintended consequence, though. In the end they will become more dependent on government dole. DEMOCRATS like that and exploit it. |

Are we going to pretend that a shitty minimum wage does not cost the federal government anything ?"Report: Walmart Workers Cost Taxpayers $6.2 Billion In Public Assistance" http://www.forbes.com/sites/clareoconnor/2014/04/15/report-walmart-workers-cost-taxpayers-6-2-billion-in-public-assistance/#6bb600047cd8 Republicans are only interested in Walmart's profits and share price. |

The trouble with you right-wingers is you can't look at two sets of data, do a balancing act, and make a decision. From your latest crack, you still can't understand it.You also failed to consider a slowed economy from reduced purchasing power from reduced wages. Forget GDP about 3% and 4% growth rates when we have a shitty minimum wage, and a federal wage for tipped restaurant employees frozen at $2.34/hour for over 20 years. So you can stop blaming Obama for slow growth too. That is why the Republican constituency demographic has become the lesser-educated of the two major parties, can only grasp what FOX news and like media tells them what to think. |

You left out"ech chamber" and "talking lamp" from your post. I said that the cost to the government would govupbeith the higher minimum wage. You've done nothing to disprove it. Thats the trouble with you low functioning liberals. You can't think off script. |

You don't know the cost would go up or how much it would because you forget the Walmart-Medicaid/SNAP issue, some of which would be deducted. You are dealing with incomplete facts.REAL conservatives, of which there are very few anymore, look at all the facts. FAKE conservatives like you look at only what they choose, perfect FOX Noise robots. |

You'd have to stop confusing me with someone that's interested in your hateful approaches to real problems real people are facing while you sit in your gated "community".Keeping wages depressed does nothing for those trapped in poverty. |

You also failed to consider a slowed economy from reduced purchasing power from reduced wagesA lower minimum wage is not "reduced wages". And you're omitting the lack of purchasing power that results from a constantly-devalued currency. |

She doesn't bother reading, that's the problem. One assumes an article would be read before criticizing it. But when it involves Bingbong, that would be a mistaken assumption since she only looks at where the story came from before closing her mind. I've lost count of how many times she's denigrated a news journal without bothering to read its story, which invariably names the original source material that the reporter is writing about. |

Does Seattle have any large suburbs outside the city limits? Look at those to take on a more city-like vibe as both people and businesses are priced out of the city proper.At least NY was smart enough to put an emergency break on the upstate wage hike... |
