Chef Jim Posted July 20, 2017 Share Posted July 20, 2017 Right. FINRA, the new NASD, which was chaired by Bernie Madoff. But hey, blame Obama. Who's blaming Obama? I'm just getting in line and pointing out you have no idea what you're talking about. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You believe the SEC is an effective regulatory body, and I'm the one who doesn't know what I'm talking about. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought we were talking about FINRA? Not only do you not know what you're talking about you seem very confused. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

B-Man Posted August 6, 2017 Share Posted August 6, 2017 Black Teens Are Fired When the Minimum Wage Rises: Two labor economists report that when the minimum wage increases, Black teens suffer disproportionate dismissals. It is no surprise that Black teens, 16- to 19-years old, are disproportionately unemployed. At the Great Recession’s bottom, African-American teens had an unemployment rate of nearly 50 percent while the rate for all teens was 27.1 percent. In the weak post-Recession, many teens compete for jobs against down-sized adults with college degrees. And economists William Even from Miami University and David Macpherson from Trinity University report that when a state, or the federal government, increases the minimum wage, Black teens are more likely to be laid off. The duo analyzed 600,000 data points, which the Employment Policies Institute says included “a robust sample of minority young adults unprecedented in previous studies on the minimum wage.” The report focused on 16-to 24-year-old males without a high school diploma and found that for each 10 percent increase in the federal or state minimum wage employment for young Black males decreased 6.5 percent. By contrast, after the same wage boost, employment for white and Hispanic males fell respectively just 2.5 percent and 1.2 percent. WHY DOES #FIGHTFORFIFTEEN HATE BLACK PEOPLE?

SlimShady'sSpaceForce Posted August 6, 2017 Share Posted August 6, 2017 So much vile for people who want a decent wage. Isn't that the American way? Earn all you can while you can? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chef Jim Posted August 6, 2017 Share Posted August 6, 2017 So much vile for people who want a decent wage. Isn't that the American way? Earn all you can while you can? Absolutely. However shouldn't it be up to the people to make sure they are capable of earning a decent wage and not the job of the government to hand it to them?

If he can't see that the minimum wage issue hurts the very people that it purports to help, but it does give libs a chance to feel better, and that's important...

However shouldn't it be up to the people to make sure they are capable of earning a decent wage and not the job of the government to hand it to them? What government job pays less than $15 an hour? If that's your take, then you truly don't understand the other side of the argument. Does it matter that I do or not? Every job I have had I always strived to get the highest pay I could. I guarantee you do the same thing. If me wanting a higher wage makes me a liberal so be it. As I said. I guarantee that you strive for higher pay which makes you a liberal too Edited August 6, 2017 by ShadyBillsFan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guarantee that you strive for higher pay which makes you a liberal too I'm sure that we all strive to make more money and if you could do it by your job performance you would. Instead you feel that you need to get the government to order that wage increase for you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
