Here are the money shot quotes from National Review-

Dirtbag owner, far right, with the rest of his soon to be out of work staff.

– I’m hearing from a lot of customers, ‘I voted for that, and I didn’t realize it would affect you.’”

– Hibbs says that the $15-an-hour minimum wage will require a staggering $80,000 in extra revenue annually. “I was appalled!” he says. “My jaw dropped. Eighty-thousand a year! I didn’t know that. I thought we were talking a small amount of money, something I could absorb.”
– “We’re for a living wage, for a minimum wage, in principle. . . . But I think any law that doesn’t look at whether people can pay may not be the best way to go.”
– “Why,” he asks, “can’t two consenting people make arrangements for less than x dollars per hour?”
!snip!

So, what can we glean from this?

A- Leftists suck at economics.

B- Leftists are all for causing pain in the name of “progress” as long as they aren’t feeling it.

C- The prog looks to solve the problem they created by turning to free market solutions – “Why can’t two consenting adults make arrangements for less than x dollars an hour?”

You just voted that system OUT, you ignoramus!

D- Progs are filthy and dumb.

  8. E. Yew might be a Dumb-Ass Prog if you voted for “The Dumb Ass” a second time!

    F. Yew might be a Dumb-Ass Prog if yew believe Al Gore and his climate gurus can more accurately predict weather ten years from now than they can predict weather ten days from now!

    G. Yew might be a Dumb-Ass Prog if yew believe that Liberalism, Socialism, and Communism are not really the same thing!

    H. Yew might be a Dumb-Ass Prog if yew believe killing babies is a good thing but killing convicted killers is a bad thing.

    I. Yew might be a Dumb-Ass Prog if everything yew learned came out of a comic book!!!

  9. HOLD YOUR HORSES: FORGET THE MINIMUM WAGE:

    Here’s a tip for BFH’s Mom for tomorrow’s Kentucky Derby.

    $2.00 Exacta Box #10 & #20

    #10 ” Firing Line” (WFB’s classic program) ridden by Gary Stevens.

    #20 “Far Right” (Need I say anymore) ridden by Mike Smith.

    A long shot? You bet. But Stevens (52) and Smith have been around that track many times. Good luck. If you win send a few bucks to IOTW BFH I’ll have a mint julep on you.

  10. Math doesn’t care what you think the truth is.

    Math IS the truth.

    Any bets on if he thinks he’s smarter than all the conservatives that tried to tell him it would go like this?

    Gump’s Momma had a saying regarding people like him. If you don’t know what she said then maybe she was talking about you.

  11. “He notes with pride that his store has turned a profit each year — no small task — since its very first year.”

    Well, not any more, now you’re going to have to go look for another job and your employees too. No more profit for you, if you’re a true capitalist as you say you are, you can’t be a progressive as well. Take a pick of what you want to be. If you’re a capitalist, move to another city, if you’re a progressive, stay where you’re at and run for an office. Go find a minimum wage job if you can, with all the businesses closing you’ll be hard pressed to find anyone who wants to hire a previous comic book store owner.

  12. @ Chief

    IF ONLY this would
    WAKE THE F*CKERS UP
    about the CONNCTION
    (I’m shocked…SHOCKED!)
    between policy and realit.

    IF ONLY.

    Ain’t gonna happen.

    *sigh*

  15. This is EXACTLY what the people in the mental ward at the hospital look like.
    The girl with her hand on her eye, one in ten people will do that.
    Anyone spot the gay?

  19. C- The prog looks to solve the problem they created by turning to free market solutions – “Why can’t two consenting adults make arrangements for less than x dollars an hour?”

    You just voted that system OUT, you ignoramus!

    Sorry, but no. The system has been in place for a long, long time. All the progs did was amp up the forced unemployment law, alias “the minimum wage”. The only free markets in the U.S. are black markets.

  20. Hey Moe Tom, I like your thinking.
    Far Right is actually breaking from the far right post position.

    That said Materiality, and Danzig Moon are my horses.
    I would superfecta them with International Star and Frosted.

    Materiality has the unique combo to beat a packed 19 horse field.

    Can’t rule out Carpe Diem, but he has a bad PP.
    Tencendur is my dark horse.

    Itsaknockout and Mr.Z would be a nice exacta payout.

    The favorites have won the past couple of years but they are due for another drought.

    No Triple Crown winner again this year.
    That last mile and a half is a killer.

    BTW, I was born and raised in Louisville.

  25. Loco Blanco. I like your run down on the Derby. I only bet three races a year. The Derby, Preakness, and the Belmont. I also try to get a bet in on the Grand National in England. That’s a killer.
    But getting back to the minimum wage.

    In this case, I hear, the big boss approached the lesbo at the water cooler and said, in all sincerity , Muska dear, due to downsizing I either have to lay you or Jack off.
    Muska said You better Jack off because I’m in no mood at the moment.

  28. Why can’t two consenting people make arrangements for less than x dollars per hour?

    For people that have at least a rudimentary brain stem, I usually say, “Welcome to the Republican Party.” This brain-donor is a spineless jellyfish; he just flows with the liberal tide.

    I hope he has to give away the remaining comic books. Serve him right for being a liberal douchebag.

  31. “I voted for that”
    Of course they voted for that!
    As Rush says, “liberalism is the most gutless choice you can make”

    He is spot on!

    “Gee, $15/hr is just the right thing to do…now let’s go to Whole Foods and get some $29 arugula”

  33. So, now these new funemployed will have to compete with the illegals they thought would be a good idea to bring in. Wonder how long it will take them to realize being a comic book store worker is not a highly skilled vocation? Maybe if they get hungry enough, they may resort to doing the jobs they said Americans won’t do… Say, don’t Sanfran Nan live around there? Maybe she could take them in…

  37. I got a simple job order one day to divide a large office in two with a door and two window openings. Simple: Track, studs, sheetrock; bing, bang boom, out the door. I had been with the company for over ten years and my boss was a friend of mine, and still is. Mike was a fair man and was always willing to give a young fellow a job as a helper in the summer months.
    On this particular simple job, Mike had sent me a young school teacher from Ireland , out on a working /holiday visa.(?) He was a bit of an intellectual , as I could tell by the fact that he was reading the New York Times at coffee break. Anyway we finished the job in about two hours and moved on to the next floor to do the same thing We did three walls that day. As I said Bing, Bang, Boom, out the door.
    Then the guy said to me, Look this is simple stuff, I can do it as good as you. But are getting 27 dollars an hour and I’m only getting twelve. (Note in the seventies 12 bucks an hour for a part time student worker was damn good money)
    And I agreed with him and I told him that when it came to laying out and building oval and dome ceiling s or even laying out a ceiling or floor, in an office building, it can be complicated. But I told him, by all means talk to Mike. Tell him you can do this stuff.

    He talked to Mike. Mike told him , Yes I’ll give you twenty seven dollars an hour, just like Tom, but I have no more work for you, we are getting slow. But you can tell your next employer that I agreed
    to give you 27 dollars an hour.

    @Goldenfoxx, Job? Dumbo is probably applying for SNAP as we type.

    But, but, but he said he was a capitalist who believes in progressive ideas. WTH do we call him bi_______________. Fill in the space. He swings both ways. However, when it comes to $$$, I bet he goes for the cash and not welfare. I really think the idea of living on the street isn’t that appealing. Taking a crap on the sidewalk. crawling into a mobile shower, asking a stranger for a buck, meeting up with his comic customers at the soup kitchen just isn’t what he’s made of though he supports such things. I really think he’s scared $hitless.

  39. I don’t understand what the problem is. The guy’s got 5 employees (excuse me, “Workers”, They’re Commies) making 15 bucks an hour each. That’s $75/hr.! Why can’t he just ask them for the money? Or better yet, make them all partners, get them to pay him $15/hr, and that will be $90/hr and they can all share equally because they’d be so rich!!! Right? Right?

  44. Liberals are dumber than a bag of hammers. Oh wait, not, I’m a racist for denigrating hammers because one day those hammers will have a right to vote. Hopefully one day liberals will self deport to hell by using a hammer properly…………aim high libbies. One swing and you can prove the devil isn’t real.
