Too funny.
My father runs a business (which he started well and truly after I was an adult) and he tells me lots of stuff.
My list of kids who have never done anything, know everything AND are on my ignore list grows.
Too funny is right.
Does he tell you all his stuff whilst changing your nappies?
Too funny. If wages are sending you broke your business sucks and you should quit and join the Centrelink Que.

mm1 news vineToo funny.
outrage on social networks as rumour runs rife that the grave of Jim Backus has been disturbed.....the family of the late celluloid star said no comment when asked about possible revenge attacks by zombies on posters baring the late stars animation name.....more on this later.....mumble mumble mumble
Everything you just said is nonsense.
If you can find evidence of how low wage rates have improved economic conditions in the US I'd love to see it.
to me, this is simple logic that is not taught enough, especially in schools.......(it must be saturday...oh, yeah)
You have me jiggered with that line of thought!
Tamarra!
Not low wages... MARKET DETERMINED wages, by setting wages artificially high you are destroying a price signal the most important mechanism in the economy. The mere fact that what you do is a low wage job is telling you that the economy really needs you to be doing something else. Don't you understand that?

If we all are on contracts from day to day, which is what the market wants in a completely de-regulated labour force, then consumption would drop as people would not know if they even had a job next week. The flow on would be that the market would then suffer from lower sales?Overall, Americans have been steadily paring debt since the financial crisis. Household debt, including mortgages and home equity lines of credit, has declined for 16 straight quarters to $12.9 trillion in March, according to a separate Fed survey on consumer finances. That is down from $13.8 trillion in March 2008.
It's in the markets own interest to have a healthy, adequatly rewarded, labour force. It's just that countries like China are undercutting everyones standard of living with their misguided (and unsustainable) policy of employment before profits....Still, the job market has weakened substantially from the start of the year, which is keeping downward pressure on spending. In August, employers added just 96,000 jobs, down from 141,000 in July and well below the average 226,000 jobs a month in the January-March quarter.
Society has already determined that if left to it's own devices, the market would have 2 classes - the rich & the poor?
This guy, he drew a triangle on a page and gave it an axis ! He must be some sort of scientist ! Wow, economics is evidence based now !
The problem now for our consumerist society is that the middle class is disappearing. It's the middle class that does the bulk of the heavy lifting - it consumes the most? Job security allows planning for the future ie home loans etc.
if my credit cards are full at 5% then giving me more credit cards at 1% wont necessarily encourage me to take more when my fears out-weigh my optomism........changing the number is a reflection of a changing emotion not the other way around

You talk about economics as a whole like is a homogeneous science with uniform agreement of what is correct and what isn't. That is not the case and even given the sad state of the mainstream in this "science" they would all agree it is hopelessly compromised by political directives skewing the playing field, which ironically is what you are proposing more of.
