  Instead of getting defensive, use our interactions to improve yourself.

    You’ve already revealed yourself as someone who keeps ratcheting up the requirements for evidence that will convince you every time you get something that proves you wrong, which is arguing in bad faith.

    Unfortunately for you, that’s the only card you have.

    So I’m just gonna let you tire yourself out here because you’re clearly not interested in actually discussing this matter. You’re just trying to “win” the argument like some sort of incel.

    Have fun. :)

      You’ve already revealed yourself as someone who keeps ratcheting up the requirements for evidence that will convince you every time you get something that proves you wrong, which is arguing in bad faith.

      That’s how debates work, unfortunately you seem unable to provide any support evidence for your claims, you then get angry/frustrated when you original claim is questioned.

      The only evidence you have provided supporting your claim is an FDR quote. You haven’t/can’t provide anything else. It’s clear you’re outside your depth, you didn’t know the fair labor standards act set rates for multiple years (I may have set you up for that one…). Your commentary on the political climate as the reason minimum wage was not set as a living wage requires more than your claim. Here is the question you have to answer were there $0.40 bills that failed (there were), and did they fail because of the $0.40 rate (they did not).

      So I’m just gonna let you tire yourself out here because you’re clearly not interested in actually discussing this matter. You’re just trying to “win” the argument like some sort of incel.

      For someone who complains about others projecting, you seem to be doing a lot of it.

        Minimum was started to keep black people from taking white jobs. It’s why I’ve never been a fan of it.
