I'm simply asking for a source and your reaction is to be a dick? Smooth. Also, you're only referring to the federal wage increase. States have had their own minimum wage increases throughout the years and each time, the cost of goods would rise, causing the boost in minimum wage to fall flat eventually - and that's what the original guy was referring to.
I guess your feelings are more important than logic, reason, and the sources that you specifically asked for. Sorry to upset your volatile emotions, enjoy your willful ignorance by your lonesome.
I never mentioned anything about my feelings, I asked for a source, and you instead acted like a child about it. The internet doesn't need more assholes around, so if you're going to act this way - just don't bother responding. It's not hard to just move on. Why are you so against stricter policies being placed on the wealthy to ensure they can't just hike up prices whenever a wage increase is introduced, anyways? You know what, don't answer that - you're a douche. Enjoy your miserable life - it must be a sad life if you have to act like this towards someone looking for answers.
