    Chris Christie resumes Thug

    Today


    I’m ‘tired’ of minimum wage talk

    http://www.msnbc.com/msnbc/chris-chr...imum-wage-talk

    http://www.nationaljournal.com/polit...eople-20141021


    “I have to tell you the truth,” said Christie, a potential 2016 presidential candidate.
    “I’m tired of hearing about the minimum wage.
    I really am.
    I don’t think there’s a mother or father sitting around a kitchen table tonight saying ‘you know honey, if our son or daughter could just make a higher minimum wage, my god – all our dreams would be realized.”




    "It's Time to Start Offending People ....
    I don't care if I'm loved ... I want to be respected."



    New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie delivers the keynote address at the U.S. Chamber of Commerce's 15th Annual Legal Reform Summit in Washington, on Oct. 21, 2014.

    I really like the way he says what he thinks as opposed to saying what others want to hear. And he is correct about the minimum wage. It is statistically a non-issue. Yet the libs harp on it for their $#@! notions of fairness - damn the economics of the issue.

    Notice the ignorance of the kind of capitalism we live in ... consumer spending.

    Move to Cuba, I hear there's very little consumer spending there.

    I'm not a Christie fan but it doesn't mean I don't agree with him sometimes.

    He's right that prosperity isn't going to come from unskilled labor and if we support that by subsidizing wages, we're dumbing down our workforce in this sense. Nothing economically good can come from it.
    my junk is ugly

    There are only two kinds of study of economics ... those who are fascinated and (e)immerse themselves ... and those who see libs and communists conspiring behind every page.

    Assuming you subscribe to your first part, facinate is with your expertise.

    Whatever you do ... never study FoMoCo's ... that is, Henry Fords' revolution of economics ... the $5-a-day wage.

    Your attitude certainly won't improve.
