Abolish minimum wage to help the defenseless!

[Isogallardo]

Now even forbes agreed that minimum wage should be abolished. I wonder why all those stupid sinkies keep insisting on giving the minimum to help the poor.

Well, the problem is that the minimum wage doesn’t ensure everyone can earn a living—it ensures that many of us can’t earn anything. And it doesn’t guarantee that everyone is paid “fairly”—it unfairly denies us the freedom to decide for ourselves what pay to offer or accept.

Well said. I have added to your points.

"Did I wish I could have gotten more than $5.35 an hour? Sure, but no one was offering me that, and as an ambitious but inexperienced worker eager to get my start, I understood why: I wasn’t worth more yet. I wasn’t just getting the paycheck—I was building the skills and resume that would make it possible for me to make a whole lot more than $5.35 some day."

Wages should be pegged to skills and productivity. Minimum wage does neither of that.

Agree take away min wage.
But we need to reduce quota of the FT or increase the FT levy to $1k/person/month regardless WP/S-pass/EP/Maid. All levy will be fix at $1k/month.
Then we will have fair competition.

This will ensure that FT is equal to Foreign Talent instead of Foreign Trash. Not gonna happen. You and i know very well that these people are let in not because of their talent.

Our million dollar ministers si bei eh sai also, using a simplistic argument that bringing in foreigners will magically boost the economy and everything will be bright and sunny. Now we are facing overcrowding on an unprecedented scale. Good job.

I'll vote anybody but PAP, because let's face it. The fault solely lies on PAP's masterful planning, without thinking for the man on the ground. In short, they have lost their mandate to bring Singaporeans forward, sitting in their ivory tower.
