Pay yours $15 first, Bern. :)

Read the article, his staffers earn an annual salary of 34k. That's a little over $17 an hour based on a 40 hour work week, problem is they ended up working 60 hours a week so it equated to $13 an hour. He wanted to raise the pay but his staffers would have to change their...

I read the article. He cut their hours. Go socialism.

There's a difference between cutting hours on an hourly job and a salary job, also hes not a socialist.

He isn't? Ask him.

He calls himself a democratic socialist, and that's one of my big gripes with him because his policies are not democratic socialism they're a social democracy, which is completely different from democratic socialism.

Democracy can vote in socialism. Socialism cannot be voted out, however. Luckily, we live in a republic.

Social democracy isnt socialism, its still a capitalist system. On paper, socialism is arguably the best system, but we've seen in other countries that it doesnt always work out that way, however when you look at Norway, Sweden, Denmark, social democratic countries...

Should they cut hours like you did?

I don’t frequent it much, it’s one of those last resorts run ins, but when I do have to go...all I see are emp standing around, or walking around chatting with other emp and the only lines open are the self check out, who they going to pay 15 an hour too and for doing what work?

All they'll do is raise their prices, so no one wins.

And put in more self checkouts. Soon only employees would be stockers

Said the hypocrite...

He also cut their hours which is how you know economics works
