#1 Well... for $15/h in Iowa you would be living pretty well. In California... you would be on food stamps and homeless.

So yeah, letting states set their own minimum wage sounds pretty fucking smart.

#2 Jerry Pournelle once made a point that USA success was, largely, based on letting each state experiment on it's own, and letting the people vote with their feet.

#3 Trump said he didn't know how people lived on $7.25 an hour...

Do I really have to shoot this bullshit down? It's simply astounding, the shit that comes out of Trump's mouth sometimes.

#5 FDR's Supreme Court ruled that pretty much everything is interstate commerce, including not growing stuff.

#6 States and cities already mandate minimum wages. They just have to be higher than the federal rate. Champ has no problem with that...

#11 @#4: If anything a customer or client receives is manufactured, grown, transported from, etc. a state other than domicile, the Feds assume force majeure, 10th Amendment be damned.

#12 The labor market is manipulated by massive immigration (increasing supply) and outsourcing (decreased demand).
