[@twisting2018]

How did that work out?

[@Artimonsta]

I mean, minimum wage is a great thing, its just waaaaaayyyyy to low. I live in germany, we have like 12.5 €/hour as minimum wage and it's still way to low

[@bluezaton]

Wow, fun!

[@Parnassoss]

@@Artimonsta 12.5 x 8 is 100 and 100 x 30 is 3000. You can get a decent house in Leipzig for 900-1000 euros. And with the remaining 2000 euros you can spend a month moderately. It's low but you won't be homeless. The place where i live we don't have this hourly concept of wage. They pay you a daily wage of 2.60 euros. And this is mainly for construction workers. Other jobs like working in restaurant or a gas station or in mall they pay you monthly. But that still is not higher than that of the construction worker.

[@Artimonsta]

@@Parnassoss @Parnassoss you aint getting anything great in Leipzig for 1000 euros, maybe you can rent a appartement.

Those houses had no AC, minimal appliances, possibly no hook ups for appliances, and were built by the local contractor non-union. People forget that with all of todays luxuries came additional crews and additional permits that increased the cost. Then you increase min wage and all those crews cost more to hire and all the materials cost more to get. This was also when a dollar a day wasn't just a saying but a descent wage.

Too bad he didn't teach you how to do math, because businesses like Wal-Mart only make ~$1.50 per employee, per hour, which means raising minimum wage is exactly why prices have gone up, and that means the wage itself doesn't really matter, this was a lateral move for those workers in terms of spending power... but, they definitely managed to hurt retired people, homeless people, disabled people, etc., while helping out the billionaires with regulatory capture, lol.

[@neonnerd1364]

The issue today is that hardly anyone actually performs well enough to deserve above minimum wage. At least in my area.
