Counter for an argument about min wage. (http://www.democraticunderground.com/10023984228)


My repug of an uncle who has always been self employed argues that Min Wage can't be raised in the U.S. because our money is the world currency standard and that if we raised the min wage in this country places like England and Canada would suffer because there economy couldn't handle raising the min wage.


My wife especially tried to point out to my uncle that actually right now the dollar is weaker than other countries currency.

He bitched that she was a stupid female liberal.

So how do we counter this argument?

 :bs:

I'm sorry, I don't buy that a conservative would say that.  He may have politely disagreed, but not called her a "stupid female liberal".

Well, he would have been right.

Your wife needs to clean out her ears.

I hadn't seen diabeticman's name before.  This could start a DUmmie trend; itchinghemorrhoidman or weakbladderboy or disgustingvaginaldischargegirl.

Is it possible that the uncle was referring to the DUmmie and not the wife?

Too late, my mole already tried those names and they were taken but had been delivered stone pizzas. I mean come on the name gets you to an equivalent 1000 posts right away.

He's been around for a while; older guy, lives in Pennsylvania, claims he can't work.

Always looking for a free ride.

Or at least a cheap one; one of his most-memorable posts was where he and his wife were trying to find a new place to live (their landlord got tired of them)--roughly, northwestern Pennsylvania--but it had to be two bedrooms, less than $400 a month, with utilities included in the rent.

I dunno if he found such a place.

We still have a few of those places in Kansas...

3. If I did that I wouldn't speak to any of my relatives. Besides I keep the peace so that when my

grandmother passes away the uncle who is the excuture of Grandmother's will doesn't hurt my mother by keeping her from her share.
 
The way will is written Uncle decides HOW any and all assests are divided among himself and his siblings

 'excuture'?  Another DU communications major? It's cute when they try to talk like the adults.

The dude really keeps the peace in the hopes that he himself will be able to benefit from Granny's passing.  Redistribution of assets among democrats is an ever-present need.

If I remember correctly, he's a former teacher.  He can't stand up on a job any more; that's his main gripe about why he can't work.

And.....get this.....he's a former teacher in.....speech.

You can conceal a lot of misspelling in speech.
