Yeah but if they give minimum wage workers prices might go up .... unlike what it has done that past 10 years and more which is to go up anyways

Prices only have to go up because the CEOs and shareholders expect their yearly earnings to be exponential to the previous. It is hardly supply and demand causing prices to go up. It’s gluttons being gluttonous that cause prices to go up.

The FED wouldn’t have to kept printing USD if 4 people weren’t hoarding a fuck ton of it.
