    I'd rather people who start businesses stay in their area of expertise (business). Why would you want to take a productive person away from producing?

    - well, people who produce are the ones disproportionately hurt by the decisions made in politics, so obviously they should be seeking ways to minimize the damage.

    You want people who never worked in private sector to be in government, I think people who never worked in private sectors shouldn't even be allowed to vote, never mind working in government.

    - oh? Because the young are so much more knowledgeable and have so much more experience than somebody who is say twice their age.

    If you genuinely believe the young can never have anything to offer as elected political representatives then I think that's more a sad reflection of your own ignorance and lack of worthfulness to the world of politics than an illustration of the real world.

    - oh? I didn't say they have nothing to offer, but I would rather people in government who started/created their own businesses in the first place and don't go to government jobs to work there forever before working in private sector.

    I think that's the worst part and it's obviously going to be a bigger problem with the younger people.

    No, young shouldn't be privileged by the system (and they can't be, because it's the old who run it, and they won't give privileges to somebody who is not themselves, that's just a fact.)

    But you are correct on something - the entire idea of 'social contract' is completely screwed up. There is no such thing. The past generations voted in some assholes who put the country into a perpetual debt position by signing up for various pyramid schemes, so called 'social contracts'. Well, the young didn't sign any contracts. They shouldn't be forced to pay for those failing schemes.

    No, it was a jab at the young. Of-course it was. Young people don't have understanding of issues.

    Older people also may not have understanding of issues, but the older people had the opportunity to learn, to gain some wisdom, to have experience, to learn from history and from their own lives.

    Of-course professionals politicians are mostly useless, young or old. A big difference may be that the young may act upon their naivete and ignorance while the old may act upon pure self interest.

    I don't trust the young or the old much, but I know that the young are pretty much ignorant and with the old it's a toss up.

    In too many instances it's true. What's worse is that many of the professional politicians go into politics and are not necessarily rich, but they become rich while in the government.

    Gingrich, Pelosi, Boehner, etc., too many of them become rich basically by setting up some special deals for people/companies who then make them rich. Making millions while working for the government, and not because they are paid anything like that, but because they are paid off like that.

    Again, how many jobs have you created.

    Your precise statement was this (full comment, nothing taken out, and the context is in this thread):

    If you don't hire people because you don't want to pay minimum wage you should be jailed for your protection. People not being hired for less than minimum wage should toss a tire around your head and burn you alive.

    Don't tell me somebody else has minimum wage, I know that the countries the world over are screwed up.

    Your words: if you don't hire people because you don't want to pay mnimum wage, tire should be tossed around your head and you should burn alive.

    So tell me, are YOU creating any jobs that are unprofitable? Because if you PERSONALLY aren't creating the jobs that are unprofitable, then you should have your own prescription applied to you.

    Why? Because that quote, that statement was a response to this statement I made.:

    No, minimum wage only outlaws some people from working.

    NOBODY can FORCE me to hire someone, who is not producing more than minimum wage worth of value after all of the expenses for a higher than minimum wage salary.

    If you hire a person, that person has to produce enough value to offset the cost of hiring, all of the associated expenses and he has to produce some profit.

    So if somebody produces 6 dollars worth of revenue and he costs say 5 dollars, then the 1 dollar is profit. If the minimum wage is 7.25, then by hiring that person at that wage instead of generating 1 dollar worth of profit you generate 1.25 loss.

    It makes no sense to hire somebody (unless you are a government), who costs your business money and generates a loss (well, there are instances where it may be a strategic hiring, something special, used to create a tax deduction or something).

    But basically by setting minimum wage you outprice some people from the market.

    If the entire world set a minimum wage of say 10 dollars per hour, then the result would be massive unemployment everywhere, as those people who were making under that amount and who are not producing enough revenue to cover and make some profit would all be fired.

    Nobody can FORCE a company to hire somebody and nobody can force a company to hire somebody to make a loss. That's just weird misunderstanding of how economy works and why people start businesses.

    In your world the total unemployment would be on the order of 30% total throughout the entire world.

    That's the entire statement.

    In response to a comment, that states that nobody has any obligation (and indeed would be an idiot), to hire people so that the company would make a LOSS on hiring them, your response was: tire should be put around your head and you should be burnt alive.

    -

    Thus the question is absolutely legitimate: how many jobs have YOU created that are a loss generator? If you are not creating those jobs, then YOU should have a tire on your head burning you alive by YOUR OWN WORDS.

    So come on, fess up.

    EITHER: you are hiring all the people around you and making a loss.
    OR: you should be burnt with a tire around your head.

    OR: you are full of shit.
