    Minimum wage laws always work towards the same end, which is to make it unprofitable to hire the lowest skilled workers. Since there is a correlation between intelligence and race, it works to keep blacks from gaining employable skills. It also keeps the younger generation from competing with the older generation by making it unprofitable to hire them as trainees (because government teachers aren't real teachers) or to work in any capacity which might allow them to acquire the skills and experience necessary to command a decent salary.

    No wonder there are so many of you on the internet. You must be mocked relentlessly when you bring this up in public.

    That's okay. Mocking is not an argument, so who cares? If people have the intelligence to formulate logical arguments, then they don't need to resort to ad hominem attacks.

    So mock away.

    The people who think blacks are stupid, and are more suspectable of cannibalism are telling us that we should pay black people less because the minimum wage is racist.

    Is this actually happening?

    How does that happen?

    They pay their workers so poorly that they qualify for government assistance...which is how WE subsidize Walmart and McDonald's

    Asking if something is happening isn't an argument, either.

    Any time you're ready, boss.

    lol good luck with finding a legislative branch that is better suited to working with Trump than the current one.

    I'm not the one advocating racist minimum wage laws. I condemn racism.

    So you don't dispute that characterization?

    It's pretty obvious you want to return to some version of black serfdom. Have fun tossing that idea around with your Klan buddies.

    The Republicans already have Congress. If you can't get a deal done now, what makes you'll get anything done in 2018?

    "racist minimum wage laws"

    That makes sense to you?

    That's about as insane as it gets

    lol you think black people are inherently less intelligent, and support legislation to cut black people's wages. All this because you aren't racist.

    This has to be a joke.

    No, that's a straw man fallacy because I wrote there is a correlation between race and intelligence. You substituted that with inherently.

    Try again, if possible.

    Another straw man. I simply pointed out how minimum wage laws are racist. You can either provide a rebuttal (doubtful) to what I wrote, or you can continue to make stuff up.

    try again?

    You think minimum wage laws in South Africa are what we should be blaming instead of a systemic racist policies such as Apartheid.

    If you can't see the problem with that, then you obviously lack the ability to see things in proper context, but that isn't new to just you. Seems pretty rampant among libertarians, and AnCaps.

    Dance around the dog whistle all you want. Your post history reveals pretty obvious contempt for black people, although not completely blunt. It's pretty obvious why you brought that up, and why you are perfectly OK with Apartheid level wages for blacks.

    Just saying that I lack the ability to see things in proper context is not an argument, or even an explanation as to what the proper context to see things is. What's the proper context? Only you and the baby Jesus will ever know.

    I kinda predicted that wasn't a possibility, and sadly, I was correct.
