Why do you want to remove legalized gambling?
The stock market is great you moron, plus it allows you to buy controlling interests in companies and get free cheese and cracker plates.

>the hard work and profits generated by the masses are redistributed to already wealthy people who merely 'own stock' in companys
That's standard for Socialism. It does not do what it says on the tin.

WHat a moron.
Let's say you put 100k in Shitty John's Buttplug Shop. Currently it's just Shitty John but he's a hard worker and you have a good feeling about his start up.
Shitty John is an expert on buttplugs and opens dozens of buttplug shops in the San Francisco. Ten years of steady gains later he starts manufacturing his own buttplugs and getting celebrities to wear them in public.
You turn on your tv one day and see Jay Z twerking with Miley Cyrus during the Super Bowl's halftime, both with prominently displayed Shitty John's buttplugs.
Your 100k is now worth 100 million dollars and you went from nigger rich to wealthy without doing anything but guessing correctly, possibly due to your vast knowledge of buttplugs.

90% of those new workers will be foreigners. Tyrone is not going to get hired, so he will continue living off welfare/section 8 housing

What about 2007-2009 and after, asshole? By the way, that question will be on your psychometric test.

Why do poorfags always think that you just "own" stock? You purchase stock you dolts. You dumbasses are just mad that you're dropping 9 dollars on avocado loaf when you could've bought 900 penny stocks and played your odds.

Yeah but you're also almost doubling your minimum wage. Good luck running a business.

>>136257427
>He fell for the raising minimum wage hurts business meme

>>136257427
right now, almost all of a persons minimum wage goes to housing, car insurance, and food, increasing minimum wage will increase spending on superfluous items like fabric softener, a larger TV, and such. people think americas economic boom suring the space race was due to Apollo missions, no, its because minimum wage then was equal to $17 an hour today
