if you learned to use a thesaurus, you'd realize that all synonyms listed are not valid in all situations. Wage are income from employment, it's okay to use them as synonyms in that case. A basic minimum income is one not tied to employment, therefore it's not wages, so it's not synonymous.

you should take an economist class, and learn to use a thesaurus. As I said, wages are one type of income, old people, for example, have pension payments as their income.

There absolutely is, inflation is just a construct. In reality, everything gets cheaper over time. How much would a 50 inch flat-screen, or a car with seat belts and air bags, or a house with air conditioning cost 20, 30, or 50 years ago in terms of the amount of hours worked to buy them... Do you get me? A minimum…

I'm in the US and I support the minimum income, but not minimum wage. :-)

No, they aren't. Wages are earned in employment. Income is a much broader concept, and wages are just one type of income.

All studies examining the effect of min wages on employment aggregates are completely missing the point (I'm a PhD candidate in Economics, btw). The effects on employment are always going to be small as businesses readjust in multiple ways to negate the increased costs such as increased prices, fewer employee perks,…

You absolutely can argue against a min wage without being a monster. It's a horrendously inefficient way to help poor people. A basic minimum income is much less distortionary and doesn't leave the lowest skilled people unemployed due to high min wages.

and Microsoft is selling that phone for 39 bucks next week. 39 bucks. Amazing.

So this is a fairly morally troubling way to save a buck. At the same time, price matching is of no real help to customer's. I know that's hard to believe but it's true. Price matching policies let businesses avoid lowering their prices and removing them gives some retailers a real incentive to actually sell product…

All these price ratio calculations miss the mark on the biggest benefit of owning: not having to deal with landlords or property managers, etc.

I'd recommend just stopping. The first two are okay, the last book is a disaster.
