    then you should go to those parents and mentors and ask them why they didnt prepare you for real life.

    That puts it 20 points above the opposition, rather than 4 points below. That's an enormous shift over 6 years.

    They did? I've never worked for minimum wage in my life. But that doesn't mean that I get to be as willfully ignorant as you about how the world works.

    Gallup first asked Americans about organized labor in 1936, a year after Congress legalized private-sector unions and collective bargaining. At that time, 72% of Americans approved of unions.

    so in reality americans want unions even less than they have before

    am i doing it right?

    No, you're once again showing that you don't understand statistics. You basically never look at a graph's beginning point and end point and leave out the middle. That's just being dishonest with facts. You look at the trends, the spikes, and you look at why they happen. Not just "Well there were x people here, and y people here, so clearly more people want this!"

    $10.50? How do you even live on such a low salary?
    The neighbours kids get more for helping us with gardening and walking our dog.

    So I have to have earned minimum wage at some point in my life to understand how it works? Are you really this stupid? Oh shit, sorry I forgot who I was talking to. I retract that, the answer is blatantly obvious.

    First off that is why that person is on ignore. Second, those type of people sure hate to use stats and facts. They just rather spew some shit from their mouth and that is fact. Better yet, that person will give some anecdotal story of five of his friends don't want unions.
    Democrats are the best! I will never ever question a Democrat again. I LOVE the Democrats!

    What..? Dude, try to structure your thoughts before posting. It's not even about more wanting it than some years before, it's that you said 'hardly any' want unions, and when faced with proof that about 60% want it, you're still kicking on the ground like a child having a tantrum.

    It's entertaining, like talking to the neighbor's 4 year old and listening to his world-views.

    a gallup poll is proof to you? and that is only 58%. that said 6 out of 10 when they should have said 5.8 but they wanted it to look better.

    The cost increase in most products would be less than a dollar, which those in the middle class could deal with, as they have with every single minimum wage increase since this started. In turn, those in the lower class would be buying more, offsetting that issue.

    Funny how economists say otherwise. You don't raise it by the entire amount. You raise prices by 0-5%, while everyone got a 10% pay increase. That gives them more spending power, they buy more. Your profit margin per item goes down, but the iterations go up. That allows the business to absorb the cost.

    Give the people more money, they buy more things.
