actual business. It's a scare tactic used by the wealthy Republicans. I know several business owners and they've all said they have prepared for it and it has very little impact on them or their employees. Stop spewing random BS.

New overtime rules go into effect December 1st. - Hbombtiger STL - 10/22 14:34:16

overtime rules are just as stupid as the min wage and child - El-ahrairah KC - 10/22 16:31:30

This is an awful rule. More punative policies - Ferg STL - 10/22 15:21:20

Or simply making sure workers are compensated - Hbombtiger STL - 10/22 15:43:11

or, let market forces determine compensation. - Ferg STL - 10/22 15:46:51

The threshold hadn't been moved since the 70s! (nm) - Hbombtiger STL - 10/22 15:48:43

So? There should be no threashold to begin with. - Ferg STL - 10/22 15:50:24

You live in a fantasy land. This has little effect on - Hbombtiger STL - 10/22 15:55:26

If it has little impact, why do it? - Ferg STL - 10/22 15:58:42

To ensure that if you work overtime, employees get paid for - Hbombtiger STL - 10/22 16:01:12

There is one thing that is ensured when government mandates - ummmm MU - 10/22 16:08:11

I work more than 40 hrs and I don't expect to get - Ferg STL - 10/22 16:04:20

I would imagine you make a better wage than $24k a year - Hbombtiger STL - 10/22 16:08:52

People who make $24K a year are generally speaking - ummmm MU - 10/22 16:12:00

The "threshold" should have never existed (nm) - ummmm MU - 10/22 15:49:54

That is certainly not your preference - ummmm MU - 10/22 15:48:17

*some* workers. - ummmm MU - 10/22 15:45:53

Agreed this will hurt big business - johncoffey MU - 10/22 15:34:56

It will hurt some employees, the most - ummmm MU - 10/22 15:44:36

It hurts NO one! Employees should be compensated - Hbombtiger STL - 10/22 15:56:26

It hurts *some* workers - ummmm MU - 10/22 15:57:49

Or employees as employers shift to more part time workers(nm) - TigerMatt MU

- 10/22 15:39:11

This, because Dems are too stupid to understand economics. - Coors4bob MU - 10/22 15:41:44

And the real point: they can't bribe people for votes if - GA Tiger MU - 10/22 15:48:48

Lol It won't shift to more part time workers - Hbombtiger STL - 10/22 15:46:43

Lol, smdh, tell that to min wage workers in areas where it - STL1DFW STL - 10/22 19:43:31

If it costs an employer more to pay one person for 50 hours - ummmm MU - 10/22 15:56:36

That's already the case, so once again, it changes nothing (nm) - Hbombtiger STL - 10/22 16:00:49

you keep saying it changes nothing, then why - Ferg STL - 10/22 16:02:41

I already answered you above. (nm) - Hbombtiger STL - 10/22 16:03:46

It adds more people into the pool of employees which are - ummmm MU - 10/22 16:02:00

No, it really doesn't. (nm) - Hbombtiger STL - 10/22 16:04:01

Well, of course it does, it nearly doubles the "threshold"(nm) - ummmm MU - 10/22 16:05:13

and for all the "libertarianism is me-first" idiots - pickle MU

- 10/22 14:52:05

ad-hom fallacy (mm) - Lothar MU - 10/22 15:18:52

That is not an ad hom (nm) - ummmm MU - 10/22 15:46:38

It is. It's what pickle does. (nm) - Lothar MU - 10/22 19:01:22

not an ad hom (nm) - pickle MU

- 10/22 19:12:49

It was. It was yet another logical fallacy by you. (nm) - Lothar MU - 10/23 00:21:25

you're wrong (nm) - pickle MU
