Two men were talking. "So, how's your sex life?"
"Oh, nothing special. I'm having Social Security sex."
"Social Security sex?"
"Yeah, you know, I get a little each month, but not enough to live on.”

5  Economy / Economics / Re: Minimum wage. on: August 21, 2015, 06:08:24 PM
The employment effect of the minimum wage is one of the most studied topics in all of economics. This report examines the most recent wave of this research –roughly since 2000–to determine the best current estimates of the impact of increases in the minimum wage on the employment prospects of low-wage workers. The weight of that evidence points to little or no employment response to modest increases in the minimum wage.

Right because basic economic principles that are taught on even the most liberal college campuses are wrong. Your cherry picked sources say so. Somehow you can just raise someone's pay above the market wage and there is no effect on hiring and unemployment. Who knew there was such a thing as a free lunch?

Well a blatant diversion and dodge attempt. What a surprise.

Notice I did not ask you to prove that "all studies" should increasing MW increases unemployment. I asked to prove your claim that "most studies" say this, as you claimed.

And that Republican piece from 1995 is the best you can come up with? Again, no surprise.
No surprise that you dismiss the results of 50 years worth of studies simply because it disagrees with your pro-Democrat Party narrative.

Notice that I did not say "all studies"? Thanks for those 6 examples. Here's a lot more of them over the past 50 years:

higher minimum wages produces more jobs

Why do most studies on the topic disagree with you? Does that ever raise any red flags in your mind? It should.

Who were sold to the slave traders by other black people in Africa.
yeah, but this discussion is about people in the USA and our multi-cultural society.
13  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Elderly White women punched in head by Black thug. on: August 21, 2015, 11:16:20 AM
Yes that is included.

We need to rectify that mistake.
reperations and bring back Reconstruction?
14  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Elderly White women punched in head by Black thug. on: August 21, 2015, 11:14:13 AM
churches where always off bounds in the past, elderly were rarely attacked. even the mafia in the old days had codes they didnt break
yes, we saw such codes in "The Godfather". Drugs were only to be sold around black people.

Black lives matter!

......or some stupid crap.
forced multiculturalism?

you mean like bringing millions of black slaves to the USA?
16  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Elderly White women punched in head by Black thug. on: August 21, 2015, 11:11:06 AM
Previous generations of Americans, including the Founders, suspected that the different races wouldn't really be able to peacefully coexist in a society so that was never their focus. But, because the boomer generation was afraid of being called "racist", here we are.
so they brought millions of black people to the USA from Africa.

That's a football game in progress at that stadium, not a Trump speech. Or did he buy that too?
Scroll back up and read the OP.

Sanders has drawn crowds as big as 29,000, has Trump drawn that large a crowd?
Which does not bode well for America.
