No they don’t.
Who cuts their spending with a higher minimum wage and what effect does it have?
Yes. If workers had more money in their pockets, fewer people would be on Medicaid, food stamps and rent assistance. Govt. depending will go down.

Well if it is anything like what is happening here tax cuts are going to be put less money in the minimum wage workers pocket and is either going to mean cuts in services or more debt which in the long run will either mean even higher taxes or even deeper cuts to service the debt.
This was something else I also did not get. First reason being the complaint that some people have no skin in the game, a higher minimum wage turns more people into tax payers. Second if the idea is less government especially spending then the private sector should be paying people enough that they do not qualify for government aid instead of teaching them how to apply for it as part of their compensation.
So I guess wages aren’t falling in the US right now, in spite of all the raises in the minimum wage? Is that what you’re telling me?
Do you live in an alternate reality, or can I have what you’re smoking?
Does it matter where the more money comes from?
If you realize the true goal of gop
Policy is to transfer as much wealth to the top 1 % then all these obvious contradictions start to make sense.
How are tax cuts going to put less money in pockets?
What money are you referring to?
Is that the function of the private sector?
And the dem policy is the opposite?
Sorry- he money in their pocket? Yes. If it comes from the Corp they work for then the taxpayers don’t have to pay to keep them alive. Then government spending goes down. Win win.
Worker gets more. We don’t pay for his food and shelter. Government spending goes down. Prices may rise but then only for the people who choose to buy that product.
Best solution all the way around.
The “more money going in to pockets”.
- More money from higher minimum wage
- More money from lower taxes
What’s the difference?
Tax cuts for minimum wage workers is 980. The minimum wage hike was putting 2000 dollars in their pocket.
Apparently in your view to get as much money from the government. You may as well embrace full blown socialism to save money.
So no difference?
A tax cut is not “getting money from the government.”
It is the government taking less of my money.
You can give proof that rising min wage causes real wages to fall.
