Minimum Wage, Maximum Stupidity – Ep 78


* The Keynesian myth of mandating prosperity actually hurts the lower middle class and the working poor
* Something for nothing is appealing to voters, so politicians make empty promises that are good politics but bad economics
* A Seattle-based company called Gravity Payments has instituted a minimum salary of $70,000/yr
* This has given him great publicity, but how will this work in his company?
* Lower paying jobs will have to be eliminated, because they don't represent enough productivity to justify a raise that doubles the employee's cost
* Higher salaried workers are not hurt because they keep their job and perhaps get a raise for picking up the extra duties formerly handled by lower-salaried workers
* The most recent political gimmick in the State of Connecticut is a tax masquerading as a minimum wage law
* The Democratic State Legislature have proposed a law that will fine companies of 500 or more employees $1/hr for any worker who is paid under $15/hr
* How will this work in the State of Connecticut?
* Right away, business just over 500 employees will pare down to fall under the new regulation, so jobs will be lost
* In reality, this is just a tax increase on the people who can least afford it
* For employees who are currently working at the minimum wage, a $1 fine is cheaper than a raise from the current $9.15 rate to $15/hr, if they do not eliminate that person's job
* This is essentially another employment tax that will result in higher prices across the board
* Neither the employee nor the employer benefits
* For employees who are working above the current minimum of $9.15/hr a raise would cost the employer more than the $1 fine
* According to minimum wage law, it is illegal to cut the worker's pay - the only option is to cut the worker
* The penalty does not apply to higher paid workers; it only applies to jobs between the current minimum wage and the new minimum wage
* It will be cheaper to pay the tax than to raise wages, but there will be less money to to toward employees because a large percentage of the workers' wages are going toward a tax
* The reality of this new law, championed for the "little guy" is that the working poor will pay a higher marginal state income tax than the richest hedge fund managers in the state
* Will the voters be able to figure it out elected officials are going after the working poor?
* This tax will also raise the cost of living, wich also affects the poor more directly
* Packaging a tax to pass off as minimm wage is fraud
