Comment on Opinion: Increasing the minimum wage comes at too high a price for workers | CNN

Look man, I’m here to have actual discussions. But we can’t do that when you flat out refuse to accept any source you don’t like.

I provided you with direct quotes from FDR himself, The DOL, and another user provided additional proof to refute your original comment on this thread about the original intent of minimum wage.

As stubborn as you continue to be, you’re not right on this one. The sooner you accept how to be wrong, the sooner you can grow as a person and we can have a real discussion here.

The Fiat Labor Standards Act of 1938 set minimum wage for 1938, 1939, and 1945.

Newsflash, Jimbo: it’s always done that. That’s how laws work. Until repealed they remain valid.

I haven’t circled back just noted that your only evidence that minimum wage was intended to be a living wage was from a claim by slimy politician and that you can’t provide any evidence to support his claim.

I already addressed the evidence I did provide which you’re stubbornly ignoring like a child refusing to eat their vegetables, so I’m going to skip right past that and laugh at the fact that you just called FDR , the only president to have been elected 4x as slimy. 😂

Please continue the meltdown. It is hilarious.

I haven’t disputed that FDR made that claim, my dispute the whole time has been the accuracy of FDRs claim. No one has provided evidence to support his claim.

Doubling down on your ignorance, too bad you can’t own it. The 1938 bill set the minimum wage in 1938 to 0.25, 1939 to 0.30 and 1945 to 0.40. There was not other votes as you eluded too in your previous post, the political climate didn’t change.

Back to this tactic, never provide support for your claim then lie and claim you did.

  What a strange tactic, double down on your lack of understanding of bill negotiations and refusal to accept verified sources of truth as proof you’re wrong in order to continue having a leg to stand on.
  
  I guess I should expect as much from you, though. Have a nice day. :)

    You are the embodiment of the Dunning–Kruger effect, you don’t know what was in the bill, ignorantly thinking is was 3 separate bills, and yet you try to come off as an expert.
