Why do liberals that want higher minimum wage pay us nothing?

[Stizzel]

It seems very strange to me that liberals pay $0 an hour to respond to their sophistry. I mean I am sure the right leaning patriots here are happy to do their civic duty and highlight the flaws in their nonsense, but there is definitely labor involved and if liberals truly feel that all labor should be paid, when will they begin paying us for educating them?

If we dont start receiving checks from these individuals then it is safe to say they dont really believe in minimum wages as a concept

Just curious if the people already making slightly higher than minimum wage will demand that their company's give them a proportional raise. Imagine working up to 20/hour for 5 years, only to have the entry level guys getting 3/4 of your pay. In other words, ain't gonna be just the minimum wage people that get laid off.

Those people will be sorely disappointed when they get pay cuts.

I think all wages will eventually increase to compensate, but slowly, and so will prices so the net effect is a negative. But I'm more interested in the supposed principles of people making these arguments. It seems clear to me that no one pushing for minimum wages actually believes in minimum wages, which means what we're up against is either incredible dishonesty or mental illness.

imagine saying "muh corrupt corporations they're greedy and make too much money and have too much power" while simultaneously saying "muh 15 dollar minimum wage increases"
