How do you do that?

Burgers are just dumb. Minimum wage in Europe is higher in some countries and they have ok economies. Burgers are just dumb, also illegal immigrants fuck over the dynamics of the workforce since they don't have to be paid minimum wage

>>131640658
Finland, Sweden, Switzerland, Denmark, Iceland, and Norway all have no minimum wage.

15$ an hour ruined my job and I get no hours now and can't really find a job because of reductions. But they won't take a public opinion poll.

That's what really makes me think that the people behind this shit know that it's going to fuck the workers over in the long-run, but they do it anyway so they can turn around and blame businesses and clamor for nationalization of industry.

>>131640658
lol 1.5 growth rate is far from being good. today's europeans are mostly living off the captial that have been acumulated in the past. western countries are in economical stagnation

What do you expect from people so dim that they unironically suggest that Boeing stop making planes and start making buses.

Also the Mayor, Ed Murray, quoted in the article has been accused of sexual abuse by on less than four different men, one of whom was a foster child under his care.

They don't need it because of how unionized they are.

"In fact, much of Nordic prosperity evolved between the time that a capitalist model was introduced in this part of the world during the late 19th century and the mid 20th century – during the free-market era."

So they got rich and then used that wealth to give everyone a decent standard of living. Sounds alright to me.

>>131648392
Sounds good to me too - as long as we don't think about the future...

>>131648392
They got rich, then dismantled the systems that allowed them to get rich, and proceeded to spend every last cent they could. Sounds alright to me.

Sweden once tried to eliminate the rentier class (people who live off capital gains) altogether.

Today Danish Americans have a fully 55 percent higher living standard than Danes. Swedish Americans have a 53 percent higher standard than Swedes. The gap is even greater, 59 percent, between Finnish Americans and Finns. Even though Norwegian Americans lack the oil wealth of Norway, they have a 3 percent higher living standard than their cousins overseas.

the US is the richest nation in the history of the world. We already made out money too so its time to keep on following the model

link to that video anon?

Unions are better because they don't distort markets really.
They are equivalents of monopolies/oligopolies and thus aren't as bad.
The minimum wage is literally a price floor in the market for labor, causing drastic distortions of the market.

So less hours working for same money? why is that mbad?

>dismantled the systems that allowed them to get rich
Is that true, though? I'd bet there are still Swedes that have gotten rich.

Anyway, if everyone has a basically high standard of living to begin with, why would they want to get rich at all? Wealth acquisition is for its own sake is pathological.

>proceeded to spend every last cent they could
You seem to be under the mistaken belief that "spent" wealth disappears.

What video?

Sweden used to be second only to the US in terms of the strength of its economy, and GDP back in the 1950's. It is now a far cry from that. Wealth doesn't disappear, but that does not mean wealth is always used for the creation of more wealth. For example, if one were to invest in a business that closed down soon after opening their investment wouldn't "Disappear" in the technical sense, the property, building, and excess stock would still exist. But that does not mean it was effectively managed, or created more wealth. The management of most services by the Nordic governments has created a similar problem. This trend shows no sign of stopping either, with the UN predicting that Sweden will be a third world country within the coming decades. But you can go "Feel the bern" and plug your ears if you want.

That's how they fuck the small businesses until they get flushed, after they get flushed the minimum wage will be dropped.
