Wut?

This place was a shitehole in major cities because people were poor as shite and living in squalor.

Minimum wage helped transfrom shitehole cities.

If you're against minimum wage that means you want to live around trash.

And have trash cities.

And a trash country.

Employers were ruthless...ergo that NY city seamstress fire that you probably approve of where 130 young girls died because the employers would lock the doors during business hours because they were too cheap to hire a manager and didn't want the girls stealing or leaving for a break during the 12 hour workday.

Minimum wage totally changed most of those arcane and gruesome business practices...because it came with safety stipulations.

No minimum wage? Shite, your employer could kill you and deal with with it, free market.

Free market created non-stop shitty dirty cities and squalor. I invite you to go back in time and live in 1840's height of free market New York. I'm sure you will have a grand time.

Somebody would pay you a penny to suck their dick and I'm sure you'd agree to it...because hey, market dictates price...and they'd pay you a nickel to kill their family...and you'd take it, because hey, it's NY in 1840 life is cheap without no wages secured, no work secured, no salary secured at a minimum price.

No minimum wage creates chaos, dick-sucking and awful smelly dirty shite-hole cities.
