This. Quite the intellectual he chose to forward his argument.



Yeah.

That was some bottom of the barrel shite right there.

SURELY, the left has more cogent arguments than what the OP supplied.

Then the current hot economy must be a figment of your imagination. Try sleeping through the next few elections and see if it goes away.

Not even clicking your link, but it is the minimum wage laws that cause a loss in jobs.

The sad part is you actually think conservatives consider their economic policies to be this.

That guy doesn't understand economics.

Costco has a completely different business model than other types of stores. It is much less labor intensive.

Yes they do, see North Korea vs South Korea.

Btw, if it wasn't obvious, Republicans = South, Dems = North.

Two things:

1) was that you?

2) at that video. It was filled with logical inconsistencies, erroneous economic theory and economic history.

Next time you say "Guy destroys ____" actually post something where empirical evidence is presented not some random person spouting nonsense.

Their starting pay is roughly the same as everyone else. They just hire fewer workers and do a better job of retaining them.

They make their money on memberships.

Go take a macro and micro economics class and get back to us. You are literally too fricking stupid to argue with.
