Personally I argue for a $33.33 minimum wage, thought you could easily convince me it should be more

No! That’s bad because it means less money for the quadrillionaires!
I am failing to see how this is my, or my comrades issues, maybe the quadrillionaires should pull themselves up from their bootstraps
If the owner class needs any more money, why don’t they get a freaking job??
Even though I unequivocally support raising the minimum wage until profits are exactly equal to the minimum wage itself, I think the "minimum wage debate" sometimes gets a bit wonky because of how many bizarre problems Yankees sleepwalked into. I can definitely see somebody living on 15 an hour comfortably if they didn't have to pay like half of their wages on fake services like rent. As it stands they pay outrageous prices for worse versions of cheaper stuff in other countries, and have to work bullshit jobs like doordash/hellofresh to keep up.
Liberals love complaining that increasing wages will lead to inflation (which is already a dubious claim), but then they refuse the other reasonable alternative of redacting the landlords. Even though Stadians have negative class conscience as a society I think it's more likely for there to be some big city rent strike than for their stock exchange hub posing as a Congress passing even a 1 dollar increase in minimum wage. Not to mention gig economy bypassing the already pityful wage for big cities anyway.
I think reducing cost of living and increasing wages should go hand in hand, a thing that the ever-compartimentalising liberal hates to do. The don't pay campaign looked very promising in the UK and I think even made Truss back down on her shit relatively quickly. Hit them where it hurts
financiallyand all.Libs in the thread thinking they're "compromising" by voting Sanders is just rich, though.
I cannot explain how infurating the libs are at the moment, I do not understand why they are so insessent that we must work with the capitalist class, we do not need them, they need us but we do not need them, they are not our friends.
If they're from the USA they've been taught since young that slavery and apartheid were abolished by asking the racists nicely to stop, so it tracks. Amerika is so diverse and tolerant that torturer and tortured can live side by side in peace.
