[QUOTE]Originally posted by NR: [QB] [QUOTE]Originally posted by buckstalker: [qb] Oh That clears things up LMAO I see...so people that flip burgers are not as important or as valuable as you are...is that it? I'll ask the question again...Why do we pay a CEO 600 times more than the average working class worker in this country? BTW...the government printing money has NOTHING to do with wages [QUOTE]Originally posted by NR: [qb] I thought it was pretty clear, but let me spell it out for you. When you have a country that has no manufacturing base, has massive amounts of debt, and those who are "producing" what little is left go on strike, and the government prints massive amounts of money with nothing of real value backing it to cover increased debt and increased wages or to carry those who are producing nothing, (the unemployed), you get hyperinflation. So go ahead you little hamburger flippers, with your demands for more and more wages for assembling the same steaming pile of meat and sauce between two buns you have already been assembling for years, and strike away. Shut the system down demanding your "living wage" of 15/hr until you get it, and see where you end up. It's just a shame that you are going to drag the rest of us who know better down with you. At least you can use your worthless dollars to heat up your burgers like the woman in the photo above when the shell game is finally up and it all goes to crap. [/qb][/QUOTE][/qb][/QUOTE]Ummm, for starters... I used to be the guy flipping burgers. I started out at minimum wage and by the time I left 3 years later I was shift manager and earned more than when I started. Did I refuse to work and hold up a sign demanding more to get a raise and a promotion? No, I showed up on time, did my job well, and worked harder than everyone else. This is NOT an issue about whether a PERSON who flips burgers is more important than the PERSON who designs bridges, and that's where I think you are going wrong with your thinking. The issue is about the JOB being done, the skill level required to do said JOB, and the IMPORTANCE of the JOB to the economy. Cry social "injustice" all you want, but there is no way the guy that designs bridges deserves to be paid the same as the guy who flips burgers. Plain and simple. To think otherwise is just plain insanity. [/QB][/QUOTE]
