Proponents of the minimum wage often cite it as a tool to uplift people from poverty. While most of these people have good intentions, their economic ignorance crushes economies in some places.
Influenced by the idiotic idea that the state can lift people out of economic turmoil, many states and cities are enacting laws that increase the minimum wage for their area. Seattle is one of these places.
Supporters of the new minimum wage expected it to give the support needed for the poor to lift themselves out of poverty and no longer use the state’s services helping them.
What actually happened will shock you.

Now THEY WANT less hours. So they don’t loose all of their Welfare benefits. They are absolutely out of their minds.
Like it says victims of stupidity
What did they think would happen? Idiots
It now pays to be a loser in Seattle. The $4.25 I made in 93 motivated me to want to do better with myself. I guess now that’s out the window.
In 30 years Seattle won’t be like it is now. Here come the losers……
It’s sad to realize that Seattle will become the next Detroit.
Plain talk, NOT PC is what we need. Confronting the medias spin and lies is what we need. A man willing to stand up to ALL threats foreign and domestic is what we need! The other candidates are now following #Trump, who do you want to lead? “If you love America you protect it with no appologies” -Trump; We have wasted enough time, money and sacrifice on professional politicians; don’t you think? STOP THE MADNESS, THE TRUTH HURTS AND HEALS. https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=135922859807645…. LIKE,JOIN,VOTE. #Trump
Seattle is a socialist city. They will double down.
Some don’t want to do better or be independent!!! Want all handouts they can get regardless!!! Why does this surprise anyone???
