Title: Buttigieg Blasts 'So-Called Conservative Christian Senators' Who Oppose Minimum Wage

(Mrs. Buttplug, mayor of Bendover, Indiana.)

At the second round of Democratic debates on Tuesday evening, Pete Buttigieg, mayor of South Bend, Ind., said opponents of raising the minimum wage are not Christians.

"The minimum wage is just too low. And so-called conservative Christian senators right now in the Senate are blocking a bill to raise the minimum wage when scripture says, 'Whoever oppresses the poor taunts their maker,'" Buttigieg

(WATCH A VIDEO AT LINK)

The mayor's decision to interpret "oppresses the poor" as "refuses to raise the minimum wage" is absurd. Christians should indeed help the poor, but raising the minimum wage arguably harms the poor.

Labor is valuable in an economy, and the price of labor adjusts to supply and demand. When a government artificially increases the minimum wage, it incentivizes businesses to do one of three things: require more of their lowest-wage workers in terms of qualifications and experience; cut workers or their hours; or automate their services to make workers less necessary. None of these options helps the least fortunate.

Entry-level workers need low-paying jobs to get a start in the economy. These jobs perform a vital service, and raising the minimum wage threatens to erase these jobs. But businesses are more likely to cut workers' hours when the government tampers with wages.

After Seattle raised its minimum wage, the University of Washington found that the minimum wage law reduced the number of hours worked by 9.6 percent. Thanks to shortened shifts and lost jobs, the average low-wage worker ended up taking home $125 less each month.

When the news broke that Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.), like Buttigieg a presidential candidate, was not paying his campaign staff $15 per hour, despite standing for a $15 per hour minimum wage, his campaign responded by cutting employees' hours. He proved critics of the minimum wage right — economic pressures from government-mandated artificially high pay actually harms workers on the low end of the spectrum.

Buttigieg is proudly in a same-sex "marriage." How does he explain away Romans 1:26-27, 1 Corinthians 6:9-11, and Matthew 19:3? Jesus clearly defines marriage as between one man and one woman. If Buttigieg wants to berate conservative Christians as somehow false Christians, he needs to address this.

The South Bend mayor also engaged in attacks on conservative Christians in the last debate, suggesting that the "kids in cages" canard means Christians must oppose President Donald Trump on immigration. Hogwash.

Yet this minimum wage push is worse than hogwash. In the name of not oppressing the poor, Buttigieg pushes a policy that arguably oppresses the poor. What will he say to the workers who lose hours and money when a minimum wage pushes their employers to make cuts?


Poster Comment:

Ahh, the 37 year old naval "intelligence" analyst who pretends to be a war hero, the gay married dude quoting biblical proclamations, and the economic illiterate claiming financial competency... All the same idiot. Who would have guessed,

Somebody should show this pervert the scripture where it says, "For a man to lie with another man is an abomination unto the Lord." (1 image)

"The minimum wage is just too low."

The minimum wage. Yet another abuse of the Commerce Clause.

Hey! My social security check is too low. I can't live on this. Gimme more!

So damned sick of the central socialist government sticking their damned noses into what employers pay their workers and trying to run everything from education to private lands and development of automobiles.

GO TOHELL CENTRAL GOVERNMENT. GET OUT OF EVERYTHING, BUT DEFENSE AND TARRIFFS.

Liberals are like Slinkys. They're good for nothing, but somehow they bring a smile to your face as you shove them down the stairs.

You don't seem to object when it's used against marijuana.

Government is in the last resort the employment of armed men, of policemen, gendarmes, soldiers, prison guards, and hangmen.
The essential feature of government is the enforcement of its decrees by beating, killing, and imprisoning.
Those who are asking for more government interference are asking ultimately for more compulsion and less freedom.

The more I think of this little insignificant dip stick licker the more angry I become! The voters of Bendover, Indiana must be as stupid as the Minnesotans. It's bad enough to elect an unknown negro, girly man communist, but quite another to even consider a flagrant fruitcake!

So says the drug pusher.

Heroin, marijuana, crack and meth. They should all be available from vending machines. There can be no prohibition against them according to the drug pusher.

No one, including me has ever claimed such ridiculousness.

Just another straw man coming from the 12-year-old child who can't stop lying about my stance on the issue.

Grow the eff up princess.

Got any comments on the article itself? No?

I didn't think so - your only reason for coming to this thread was to personally attack me.

Frankly, I'm sick of reading your ignorant posts.

You said misterwhite approves the commerce clause being used against marijuanna. Implying there is something about marijuanna that is being abused by the commerce clause.

You approve of harmful drugs being legal.

So it is obvious you are crying that drug pushers are deprived of selling marijuanna. Since crack meth and heroin are also drugs it is reasonable to think that your views are the same regarding those harmful drugs.

Since it is unconstitutional according to drug pusher deckard to limit pot sales. It must also be against the constitution to limit meth, crack and heroin sales.

Hence Deckard supports heroin in vending machines. It is taking your drug pusher mindset to its logical conclusion.

Sorry if your drug fried brain is to stupid to understand it pusher.

You approve of alcohol and tobacco being legal, drug pusher.

Hence Deckard supports heroin in vending machines.

You really love making shit up.
