World wide minimum wage...and a suggestioon for a maximum as well.

i think 12 dlls an hour is great for a burger flipper, he could support a family with that and if he likes doing it, then great, he'll probably do a GREAT job flipping burgers! besides, crime would go down, cause everyone would have what they need...

That's gotta be the most ignorant statement of the centry. First of all if you're a burger flipper and have a family you're an idiot and your low expectation baby mama should be sterilized. 2nd of all most criminals don't commit crime because they're poor. Although poverty plays a role so does being a lazy douche bag (probably the reason they're poor.) And the next cock sucker that says I'm lucky to make 20$ an hour is going to get kicked in is his unmotivated balls. Luck had nothing to do with it. Get a skill or go school. Lazy fucks.

These are all good points about minimum wage. But here's my question. If it's my company, Why can't i make more than a million a year if it's doing good? And whose gonna stop me from paying myself as much as I want.

It's called "PROFIT" not "excess money." Who in their right mind would be motivated to make "excess money" that they couldn't keep?

No! No! No!

Profit is illegal.

There is no need for profit.

Don't question anything I tell you to think as a sit here in my dacha drinking and eating all the foodstuffs that are no longer on the shelves of your local grocery store because there is a shortage of them or because I have told you that they are not good for you.

If you don't like what I tell you then you can just flee like everyone else.

Love, your Dear Leader,

Kim Jong-il

I would not want you to experience profit so if you flee you get bullet in your back. That is how much I care for my people. I shall sheild you from the evils of excess money. Jus lookin out for my peeps.

alright middle aged man... i won't even argue with you... you just go on blabbering about whatever it is you're good at blabbering and we'll pretend to care... oh and watch your spelling and grammar, you're the one that's supposed to know english...

and i was giving an opinion too... you dont like it, thats fine, just say you disagree, talking about ignorance just makes you ignorant... i understand why you don't agree, no need to call people names or turn a discussion into an argument

i think there's a reason why it's called "imagine" and not something like... "look at"

wrong... the excess money made in companies would go to the government... which would then subsidise basic needs, like food, shelter, transportation, education, etc

ok..maybe the US makes you pay for your own health, edu and so on..but not ALL countries do, OZ doesnt, thats why you pay taxes...a universal health system for all..same with Eductaion, its basically free til year 12..or 18 years for you yanks..even then Uni is subsidised..so EVERYONE that deserves to go...goes.


Now, that makes OZ a welfare state, but also a capitalist nation..all our shit costs more than you guys
in the US..everything, even after exchange rate..we still pay more..why? our high wages, amd location..
everything has to brought in..

another reason $12 everywhere couldnt work...inflation pushing ALL prices up..imagine developing nations..
if they even found a way to sustain those wages..having to deal with that..

I'm sure you're not just money poor. Maybe we should lower the minimum at which we consider people retarted. I'm sure you'd like to stop riding the short bus and be able to make 12$ an hour. Thanks for letting me know giving an opinion is ok because I was afraid the opinion police were gonna come and git me. Ignorance is bliss a bananaboy, I guess untill someone points out just how IGNORANT you really are. Now go get your shine box BOY. My shoes are scuffed from kicking you around.

people in my country ... example teachers get a monthly wage that is no more
than 240 dollars (this is the highest )

if you work 8 hours a day you wont take more than 10 maybe 12 dollars
and im talking that the prices here are as high in every country even higher becuse no one controls
them what price to put so if you have been living in america come and visit us and you ll see
that you have to work inlegally to be rich automaticlly or unless someone who dies leaves you his capital

...not to mention no more pro-sports...

Some people also looked over the concept behind the way of living as mention in the Star Trek series.
No money, no hunger, no profit, things like that.
After a while they realised, that they were still thinking money wise, so they started again, with the notion that money is not needed.
They said after a very long time, that it wasn't such a bad idea at all.
Everyone has the same way of living, all over the world.
You will have to go to school and work and such. You will get your food and clothing just like now, because you have worked for it.
There will be no more poor countries, because the former rich countries, will help them (for free) to build housing, help them with farming, you name it.
In the beginning this will take a lot of time, but since money has been cancelled, the costs will be zero.

When I read what they thought about it, I was like, BULLSHIT, but after a while I also started thinking without the notion of money and only then it started to make a little bit of sence.
But it took me a while too, I must say.

I understand spyro. We in America are not fortunate though. It has taken a lot of hard work to make this a great country.

well we do a lot of history here , so i have learned a lot of America and i know that a lot of work
has been done ... i have a good opinion of americans like all albanians. We got a proverb
"Love Albania like eagles their place " and now we have changet it to
"Love Albania like albanians love United States "
All i want to say is that we dont need a million dollar to live a year ,
we need to have a place to work that gives us the opportunity
to live a normal life .. i think im lucky because most of us dont have even a pc
