  • Moving the goal posts for someone else doesn’t negate the original comment’s thesis. Raising minimum wage doesn’t increase inflation, because as we’ve seen inflation has already gone up.

    Raising minimum wage (especially when tied to inflation and regional cost of living) often provides people with more spending power and work life balance. More money flows thru the economy while also allowing savings to increase. It can also cause other skilled labor jobs to see an increase in wages, and higher union attendance.

    Pay people better. Don’t simp for the oligarchs.

    Once you verb a noun, you can use it however you like. Rock could turn to violence if you did it to billionaires, but you can rock out, too. Tools are a good source. Shovel billionaires, hammer billionaires, blowtorch billionaires.

    Wordplay is fun!
