Donald Trump displays more economic ignorance.

Minimum wage laws are evil.

If Trump becomes president, I am going to have no problem finding material for EPJ.

Come to think of it, I won't have problems with material if Hillary is president either,

Donnie or Hillary as president won't be good for most of you, but it will be a gift to EPJ.

Question for unknown author...

If federal minimum wage was abolished, would wages increase, remain the same, or decrease?

Question number 2...

With removal of wage law, would the author also abolish the tax code that sets limits of money withheld from wage earners? If so would the author support direct tax increase on employers?

I cant answer for him, but i know that the author is an Austrian economics guy who doesn't support the income tax. He often posts about companies who go belly up when minimum wage increases. Government should have no say in the matter, just like child labor laws.

A pox on that mans house.

As a victim of child labor during the great depression, I can vouch for the need of such laws, if society is going to survive.

It comes down to a basic premise, namely, is there such a concept of, "the milk of human kindness" or is there a need for man made laws to guard society????
