$15/hr Min Wage - We told you so

[Starlight]

Apparently AT&T is currently trying to do a big merger, which Trump's justice department is blocking. So that's why they're trying to curry favor by lying about what they are doing with the tax cut money.

You're way behind the times - even Fox News was raising that as a concern. I thought a leftist conspiracy nut like yourself would have already known that.

So despite knowing that, you willfully repeated their false propaganda here about how they were spending the tax cut money, even though you knew they had motive to lie?

You're a real pantload.

You're falling for their lies. AT&T Credits Trump for Bonus Its Union Already Negotiated. The AT&T bonus had been negotiated and announced weeks before the tax bill passed.

Let's see article of yours:

CWA also pushed AT&T to add bonuses

So even union says it was because of tax bill.

So more about how the $15/hour minimum wage experiment turned out in Seattle:

Basically the whole point of the increase was to help the unskilled worker get a decent living. The result: skilled workers barely scraped by and unskilled workers suffered.

In other words, it's turned out pretty much as one might reasonably expect.

What I said from the start: if a company is forced to pay someone $15/hour to flip burgers then that company is going to hire only the most skilled and experienced burger flippers in order to get the most bang for their buck. The liberal dream of some high school dropout getting top dollar to slack off in a fast food kitchen was never going to happen.

The X-files just had an episode about the dangers of automation. The robot restaurant was upset because Mulder didn't give it a tip. So it started stalking them.
