Minimum Wage Self-Impoverishment

People Advocating Their Enslavement

Minimum Wage Self-Impoverishment;
These Workers Advocating Self-Enslavement

I was grocery shopping in a major outlet which allowed me to connect to their Wi-Fi and with their app I could scan my purchases on the fly as I bagged them then scan a barcode at the automated register, pay and walk out of the store. This great convenience allowed me to get in and out quicker than using a human teller or the usual self-checker devices at the check-out counter. I was thinking, “Modern advantages of the digital age; ain’t it wonderful!” Then I got to thinking not only of how many tellers were replaced by automation but how many tellers was I replacing for my convenience? This was a result of the evil Minimum Wage push engineered during the 20th century which harmed the very people it was supposed to help. Duped by Socialism; again.

Minimum Wage Major Tool of Racism

Historical Ignorance is Racism’s Tool
Socialism Wants YOU to Demand Equality

“Free Soil, Free Labor, Free Speech, Free Men, and Fremont” was the campaign slogan of John C. Fremont, Republican in 1856. While this was touted as anti-slavery it was in fact an anti-Black slogan to limit immigration of black persons into non-slave states and thus lower wages for current residents; i.e., non-blacks. Public education has hidden this point and current Republican propagandists such as Dinesh D’Souza only shows you Democrat’s racisms. This sentiment did NOT die with Lincoln’s War. It became the linchpin of 20th century’s Minimum Wage movement.

Post Lincoln’s War, blacks had few employment opportunities North or South due to lack of education and fluctuating labor markets. They were mainly sharecroppers which simply meant they were economic slaves rather than owned chattel. They were cheap labor resources waiting to be tapped and tapped they were during President Wilson’s World War I entry to advance national Socialism at home. War production demanded large labor pools in many northern Democratically controlled cities. Whites were drafted as soldiers or worked in more skilled jobs which left the plethora of unskilled jobs demanding to be filled by ANYONE! Contrary to popular myth, women were a minority of the work force in both World Wars. This demand for labor from any source prompted the Black Migration {Calton, C. The Racist History of Minimum Wage Laws. Mises Institute.}.

Sowell on Minimum Wage Slavery

Minimum Wage Jobs are not Careers
Entry Level Jobs for Unskilled to Climb

Since the blacks were coming from very low paying jobs, they were willing to work for less which still enabled them to gain employment and begin their climb up the job ladder to better jobs. Free market demands that each labor market find its own price point based on demand which will include skills, proficiency, education, etc. The wages of those already in these job markets were being lowered and they blamed the blacks rather than work to improve their own marketability. It began with the Brotherhood of Locomotive Firemen (1909) who advocated for Minimum Wage. Not surprisingly, this minimum wage was above the blacks wage and nearer to their own. The upshot is that these unions advocated for the minimum wage, received their demands and almost instantly most blacks were unemployed. This caused a scarcity in the job market and those who remained employed received pay raises: centralized price and wage controls. Though this Minimum Wage was touted as equality, it was anything but about equality. Free Markets are color blind but Controlled markets are fixed by centralized Controllers responding to artificial conditions. Unemployed blacks could not feed their families let alone obtain more training to move up the job ladder.

FDR’s programs during the Great Depression further aggravated this racist approach under the guise of equality. The Davis-Bacon Act (1931) set Minimum Wage for anyone working on government projects such as TVA {Tennessee Valley Authority}. The National Industrial Recovery Act (1933) set Minimum Wage throughout the economy; again, blacks were being marginalized into poverty under the guise of equality. The Fair Labor Standards Act (1938) set Minimum Wage for any interstate commerce business; it was about the equality {Anyone sensing a pattern?}. During World War II, the federal government brought segregation into previously non-segregated communities to gain the Dixiecrats votes for war-related projects making government the single largest contributor to inequality! This was supported by Republicans and Democrats; no innocent hands!

Now, under LBJ, the Democrats declare war on poverty for white people in Appalachian communities, and for blacks also in urban areas (1965). For over 60 years the Federal government had created black poverty and now they claimed to have the solution: national socialism known as the Great Society. It has almost completely destroyed the fabric of black society and imprisioned most of its recipients to urban ghettos totally dependent on government doles. It has created more poverty for those who at one time were working themselves out of poverty and racism.

Minimum Wage Inequality Myth

Minimum Wage Propaganda
Focuses on Inequality of Outcome

Republicans and Democrats rely heavily on Socialism to achieve and keep Control. This graphic emphasizes the inequality of various workers planting the impression of unfairness. Unfairness that can only be fixed by minimum wages; except for the unspoken epitaph: All are Equal; But, Some are MORE Equal than Others {Apologies to Animal Farm and George Orwell.}. The Delusion of Socialism lies in Equality. There are only two forms of Equality in Socialism: 1) Equality of the Masses who must be equal in every aspect; 2) Equality of the Elites who need more to administer the programs of equality for the Masses; these need more since they are doing more {in their estimation}. Thus, the Minimum Wage worker’s ire is directed against the Median Wage worker simply because he is making more; each system has elites but for different reasons socialism conveniently ignores. The actual purpose of Socialism’s Minimum Wage is to reduce the Median Wage worker down to the Minimum Wage worker level; the Elites administrating the program seek to increase their share of the pie. {Socialistic colloquialism.}.

Though Minimum Wage originally sought to keep the races segregated, without appearing to mandate racism; its finally goal is to make EVERYONE equally impoverished and totally dependent on the Elites for bread, water, medicine, etc. Government healthcare is not a blessing but the empowerment of government to decide who lives and dies. Nowhere is this clearer than the CDC’s approach to its Covid Plandemic inspiring thousands of international doctors to advocate for effective life-saving treatment rather than profiteering Remdesivir which destroys the body often resulting in disability or death.

Modern American Socialism

The success of the Gramsci-Fabian-Frankfurt School style Socialism is that Control is not directly forced but propagandized so that the Masses agitate for their own enslavement; or in this case, re-enslavement.

Bible is against Socialism. Paul wrote, “If anyone is not willing to work, let him not eat.” (2Th 3:10). The Pilgrims tried a type of socialism for three years in Massachusetts and nearly died. They averted total failure by following the Bible. People ate from what they harvested. People were motivated to work hard to eat during the winter; the colony survived! Virginia colony at Jamestown had a similar situation that was turned around by following Paul’s writing. Yet, today’s modern Americans know better and ignore biblical truth in lieu of government guidance. Remember, government, ALL governments, work for Satan! His final kingdom will be based on The Delusion under his dictatorial human ruler supported by his own religion that will tolerate only one truth: his own (Jn 8:44; 2Th 2:3-12)! The Minimum Wage scam is just another way to delude the people into demanding their own enslavement in the name of Equality! Whenever you read Equality, you should think, Inequality for that is Satan’s true goal: Control only for himself over everyone else.
