It’s been proven otherwise for decades. Even jobs that are not covered by minimum wage pay more than that.
According to you he has completed a PhD.
What the hell? Did you skip the entire history of lend lease and our support for the Soviets during the war?
The invasion of Normandy was rushed solely to help Stalin who was pouring his people unarmed by the tens of millions into the grinder and executing those who fled instead of dying to the last man, woman, and child to slow the Nazi advance?
Good lord man, take a history class.

Without the US supplying them with everything from bandaids to bullets, boots to beans and ham, tanks, aircraft, artillery, Studebaker “Deuce and a Halves” for mobility, and creating an entire sea, rail, and road transportation system for them to deliver that Aid Stalin would have been crushed by 1943.
The only way Stalin survived the war was the time we bought him with our support that enabled him to move all of his heavy industry far to the easy beyond the range of the Nazi advance and their very limited medium and long range air capability along with building them the means with which to mobilize and move the products of that heavy industry to the front to finally halt and then reverse that advance driving them all the way back to Germany in just two years.
No ■■■■ Maynard. That doesn’t make him a physician.
Who said he was a physician? Certainly I have not done that.
It’s the entire point you attempted to refute.
What do you think “Doc” means in this country?
I know the only person qualified to speak for me is me.
Doc: one of the seven dwarves perhaps?
You seem to forget you have a posting history the rest of us can read.
You need much better bait.
The statement was “So, if you can get away with paying someone $2 an hour, you can see no reason not to do so?”
I said “That is the mind set of employers.”
The key part being “if you can get away with it”
They can get away with it in jobs that are not covered under Minimum Wage laws yet they don’t pay people 2.00/hr.
If they did, they wouldn’t have any employees willing to do the work.
Even illegals working in some of the worst jobs in the country make many times that.
Which is why they move to countries where they can do that.
You’re just making things up again.
Simply a fallacious statement.
Then show it to be so if you can instead of making your usual baseless assertions of fact that you never have and never can backup with any actual facts.
Of course you are. The main reason companies move off shore is regulation that has made it unprofitable to manufacture in the US.
The facts show otherwise. Regulation and Taxation are the primary factors that made industries flee the US in Droves.
We can beat most of the world with labor costs due to our much greater worker productivity resulting from our innovation, computerization, robotics, automation etc.
Taxation I’ll give you, not regs.
And you remain completely wrong.
The EPA, Clean Air, Clean Water Acts and similar Regulations have driven more manufacturing from the US than all other factors combined.
