US the Evangelist of the Anti-Christ

US the Evangelist of the Anti-Christ

 

"President Obama called and congratulated Jason Collins, a basketball player who came out of the closet and declare he's gay." American headline.

 

Few nations and civilizations have done so much to destroy the Christian kingdom on earth, to wreck and ruin and take life, since the pagan Roman Empire, than the "Christian" US.

 

The majority of the people of America consider themselves Christians, but this is a self delusional falicy. In truth, the US is one of the most militantly secular and vehemently anti-Christian countries in the world.

 

It all started when the American churches sold out their souls to Lucifer for tax exempt status. In return for not paying taxes, they would no lecture morally to the politicians or their flocks on the right and wrong of their government policies. As those policies expanded exponentially into controlling every aspect of the "free" American lives, those who were slaves of sin in turn became slaves in real life, while still deluding themselves that they were a free and godly people.

 

The road to Hell is paved with good intentions, and it is peopled with the self delusional. Many a soul will drop into those burning pits believing in its own self righteousness.

 

Not only have the protestants gone above and beyond anything that Lucifer may have hoped for, in splintering, mutating and heresy the message of Christ, they have also watered down the strong Orthodox/Catholic faiths so much so, that there is little of God and much of a social club atmosphere. People are assaulted by revisionist church doctrines from one side, that tells them that everything is ok and that God loves everyone, true, and nothing really is a sin, FALSE. So they sing in the chorus and memorize some lines in the Bible and then commit the most heinous of sins against their fellow brothers and sisters.

 

Add to this the most base and vulgar and nihilistic attacks by the secularists and you get the quagmire and evil den of vileness that is the modern American society. Get mine and screw all you bastards...yeah, get mine, society. Greed, gluttony, self obsesses self love, you name it: and above all PRIDE. A pride that has a blind people committing evil with every breath.

 

This has even led to a false doctrine, born in Scotland, in 1886, but grown and nurtured in America, the doctrine of Tribulation and dispensationalism. Where American Christians, protestants, are so holy that at the end of the world, they'll just be whisked away and not have to suffer as the others. This in and of itself, this self identified "holiness" has bred pride at astonishing levels.

 

Now many readers who fall under this label will turn away and scream that all this is generalizing and that they are not like this and such. True it is generalizing to a degree and exception can be found, but exceptions, and there are few, only uphold the law.

 

If not, then tell me, dear dissenting views, if the nation of America is such a Christian nation, full of such Christians, how is it that your elites, in a Republic, no less, since the 1910s were sponsoring anti-Christian Marxists, first in Russia and bringing us the Bolshevik Revolution, the Civil War, the horrors of Soviet repression and then equally the German Nazis, who also rode to power on the backs of Wall Street monies.

 

Tell me, how it is that the US supports one Islamic jihadist thuggery after another, sending monies, tanks, soldiers and covering, excusing their terrorism, repression and anti-Christian jihads (as long as those thugs are not Shiete of course)? The whole of the creation of Al Quida, an American project that now plagues the world and has snuffed out the lives of hundreds of thousands. The rise of the Muslim Brotherhood, all created by American efforts before our very eyes and it has already cost the lives of thousands and will cost the lives of millions before it is put down in bloody war and destruction.

 

Now we read that a Russian charter plane, flying over Syria was shot at by two manpad anti-aircraft missiles. Thankfully the plane and the 159 tourists returning from Egypt, was to high to reach. And whence came those missiles? Why from the American military, now actively supplying, training and moralizing the Islamic mass murderers, butchers and sadists who run the rebellion against Assad in Syria. These are the very men who were video taped using 6-7 year old children to behead their tied up captured enemies and then with joy roasted those heads. Did they eat them too?

 

But this is the overt direct Satanism that flows from the modern US. There is also the less obvious and much more dangerous.

 

America's greatest exports, now that it produces almost no goods, is culture, but what a culture! Vile music that denigrates women into bitches and hos, that emphasis only self absorption and greed. Films that assault God and morality at every opportunity, that push a godless Marxism at every turn. Mass murder of the unborn created by and exported by Planned Parenthood, who even has murder (abortion) ships that they will drive to the coasts of countries where abortion is illegal, so that they can sacrifice the unborn to their satanic masters.

 

And the US government, through grants to a myriad of fronts called NGOs pushes homosexuality, divorce, immorality, destruction of order, the family, the Christian faith at every opportunity, even as it directly finance Russian Nazis: National Bolshevik Workers' Party or the Ukrainian Nazis: Una-Unso and other such subhuman trash around the world.

 

All is aimed at domination through destruction of Christianity, as it prepares for the coming of the anti-Christ.

 

But God will not be screwed with. God will not be mocked. God will act and do so with a power that even Obama and his den of bugger and corruption, the US Congress, can not executive power or legislate away. And all those self righteous "Christians" who sat by and did nothing, risked nothing will be nothing, along with their leaders.

 

Is the Judgement of God upon you? As one of your politicos likes to say: "You betcha".

The Despicable Moral State of the Left: British Thatcher Death Parties

The Despicable Moral State of the Left: British Thatcher Death Parties

Last week a mighty woman, who had been brought down low by the inequity of Alzheimer's. She was a force of conservative and monarchistic values, one that turned a Leftist British society of government handouts into entrepreneurial spirit. A person who strove to set a spirit of "do for yourself" instead of "wait till the government does for me". 

In the long run, while she was triumphant, all that work has still been eroded by a lazy, and worthless and ever growing class of consumers of the government dole, who could not be bothered to get an education and commit to the evil or evils: work and self sustainment. 

The UK is, of course, not the only ones who suffer from this, by and far, far far from it. The whole of the Leftist pseudo Marxist WEST, in various stages of necrotic decomposition, has an ever growing class of leeches. These in turn feed the government uber leeches in power, who maintain their power by stealing from those that produce and giving bread and circuses to the masses. 

Of course this is the stepping stone to true Marxism, and when that steps in, those bloated and stupid grazers will suddenly find themselves with the choice of either working where the government tells them, for a nominal fee or working and dieing in some less than pleasant location when the government sends them. Marxists systems, after all, pride themselves on no unemployment. But I digress.

So it should come as no surprise at the baseness, in human character of the death rallies and parties that these human parasites are having, feeding off of the death of Lady Thatcher. In olden times, strong opponents, though they may have been hated, were never celebrated when they died, but given the respect of a strong and once feared opponent. No more. Not with the Marxist Left, which degrades all human nobility into a sub animalistic psyche, a Satanic creation, worthy of some inquisition, as they show themselves to be a cancerous cannibalistic growth on the body society.

The images that will follow speak for themselves. They are a pathetic testament to a paganistic, Satanic slice of society that in many Western Degenerocracies are now half or more of society. This is even more pathetic than the American parades for the death of Bin Ladin. Not that the American creation bin Ladin did not deserve to die, it is just that Christian societies should never behave the way the Yanks did and do at the death of a human being, no matter how evil he was.

That the British now do the same at the death of a fellow Britain, and one who loved her country first and foremost, even insisting on a simple burial to save money for the country, is beyond pathetic. It is a disgusting degeneration that must be cut out of society like any cancer to prevent the full demise of the Degenerocracy.

To Lady Thatcher, I say: You fought the good fight, you will be missed, rest tight in the arms of the Lord.

Some pathetic Degenerocracy comments from the degenerates:

America's Business is Business

This famous saying by Calvin Coolidge along with the God Father's "Its nothing personnel, just business" are the two summaries of the American psyche. 

While in the short run, this may work for a society, that is, until of course 1% owns everything and the land is prepped for Leftist revolution, in the long run it is a disaster for everyone involved with that state.

When a people are concentrated only on money, on getting their's, on hitting it big, there is very little room in their lives for other, useless pass times and emotions. Such pass times and emotions are the Christian Faith (Americans have even created a doctrine of the rich, where it is said that God wants Christians to be rich, not in the spiritual sense but in cash and goods...now send us your money and we'll pray for you to get stinking rich), other things lost or discarded along the way are: honour, dignity, spravidlivost (there is no direct English translation that really encompasses this word and what it means). Along the way is lost the concept of the team, of pulling up those around you and counting on them to have your back, thus friendship is only valuable while serves some function and family is not something you build your life's bed rock on.

While many readers will say that this does not describe them or is the product of their elites, I say bunkus. First of all, dear readers, when a population is absolutely armed to the teeth, the leaders that sit in power sit there because the people do not mind them sitting there. While the so called conservatives bemoan the loss of family or God, they do absolutely nothing to stop it. Where are they in the streets? 

American pass time is to laugh at the French, yet when the French government started pushing through gay this and gay that, the French Catholics and Conservatives burst into the streets, even fighting with the police. The French by and far have much more fight in them in than Tea Party group or the whole bunch combined. Why? 

Simple really. Speak to any "conservative" American and he will tell you: unlike those hippies and such, I have to work. That goes back to the Business is Business quote. A conservative American is only conservative so long as it does nothing to get in the way of his pocket, earning his cash and buying his toys. His convictions are a thin veneer to make him feel better about his worship of the material over the spiritual. 

This equally applies to the American Left whose great en-devour is to "earn" other peoples' things and money. Just as morally bankrupt as the "right".

And what of the American churches? They sold out a hundred years ago to the god of Cash and Tax Exemption. Why do you think, dear readers, for those of you who have ever traveled into an American village of some 10,000 souls and there are 50 churches? Its a money making venture, nothing more. Most American "priests" barely have an understanding of God's word. Sure they have memorized the scriptures, but like empty pagan rituals, they spit them out while serving Lucifer and earning off of the speech making.  They sell the modern version of forgiveness to their flocks, who then go out and do what ever they feel like, while rationalizing everything away...."well I sing in the chorus".

And the priests themselves are fallen angles who when caught make remorseful confessions and such and the people do not just forgiven them but always fail to hold them to a higher standard.

This is seen daily in America's relations with its allies. The understanding of ally between the Anglos and especially the American Anglos and that of the Slavs, especially the Russian Slavs, is one of day and night.

In our ancient times, if my guest left my stronghold and went to stay with my neighbor and my neighbor insulted them, I would be honour and spravidliva bound to gather my clansmen and wage war on my neighbor for my former guest's honour.

To our allies, we go to war for them, be they Serbs or others. The Americans view allies as vassals, to be maintained as long as there is a profit and then ditched, murdered or captured as need be, as long as the next guy is just as much in their pocket. The list of the abandoned is hundreds long, just like Michael Saakashvillie just learned. He who started a war for the Americans and threw 3,000 Georgian soldiers under Russian tank treads, has just found out the truth of the matter. Before him was his own predecessor Shevernadze. Others recently were Yushenko, Tomoshenko and their former boss and rival Kuchma. In short the list is very long stretching 230 years.

It is of course sad to see that so many of our own people, who finally abandoned the American/UK/German imported godless Leninist Fascism and Stalinist Communism  have fallen for the latest Western craze, the Third Way Socialism. Slowly that realization is coming to fruition in our land, that this is just as much a short sighted decision as the previous Western import.

But regardless, there are two real world models, ideologies, one would say, that are now fighting it out, even if not in a full hot war: American "Business" and Russian "Spravidlivost". One is grounded in a godless pursuit of profit over everything, just as radically insane as the Marxism it also spawned, with the Lincoln Republicans, and the other grounded in Christ and Honour.

Nations of the world: which will you choose?

A Modest Proposal: Or Fight Hypocrites With Their Own Weapons

Once more we find ourselves facing the typical Western hypocrisy, an endless stream of do as we say not as we do.

The Anglos love to read us poor white apes lessons on the rule of law and justice. They go to great ends to make their endless, self righteous morality speeches. But do they follow them themselves?

What am I speaking of, this time, dear readers? Why the news of the latest Russian "political" refugee from Russia to London:  Mr Andrei Borodin, the former head of the Bank of Moscow. Why did this gentlemen suddenly discover that he is at odds with President Putin? Well there is that little matter of the $40 billion that the bank "lost" for its depositors and that had to be refinanced from government funds.  Deloitte & Touche auditors stated that "actions of the former Bank of Moscow management caused significant losses within the bank."

Luckily for Borodin, he had more than a billion of that sum stashed away in his own overseas accounts and was able to land comfortably in his new homeland, to the tune of a $210 million house. Yes, this is the face of the common British refugee, a filthy rich, filthy crooked bastard running with hundreds of millions if not billions of dollars of other people's monies.

Well, I have a modest proposal for dealing with America and Europe: fight fire with fire. Lets allow all the tax "criminals" of the West to settle here. First transfer a down payment of at least $500K, no questions asked, than just make it to Russia and our PR machines will work over time to make you an angle (considering the thieves in the Liberal Democracy governments, you probably are). You will automatically gain asylum and the more you transfer in, the stronger our defense of you. Luckily we are not as cold hearted as the various Western thieves, to demand tens or hundreds of millions as down payment.

I am sure that the government mouth pieces in the West will miss no notes in screaming about those corrupt Russians, defending thieves, all the while ignoring the Red Woods in their own eyes, but hay, what's good for the corrupt Goose is just as good for our Gander.

Cyprus: The German Checkmate

Cyprus: The German Checkmate

Many talking heads have not slept a wink or a minute in their effort to wax endlessly on the Cyprus conundrum . They point out endlessly that this could lead to runs on the banks throughout southern Europe and that this would hit Russian money the most.

In truth, I say to you, listen not to these useful fools of the Prince of Lies. While they give you a few ounces of truth, they sell you tons of lies to lead you into the fog and away from the truth of what you are witnessing and it is something much much worse than what they are proposing.

The truth of this move by Brussels, in other words by the Franco-Prussian alliance, is much more sinister and much more Byzantine. Let us explore.

We are told that the majority of the money here is Russian. That is not the truth. Russian monies are over $40 billion but are mostly tied to companies not individuals, though those are not in short supply either, but the biggest investors are the British who have over $120 billion in Cyprus. So on one level this a Eurobank move to close down a perfect off shore and push out not only the external competitor Russia but also the more dangerous internal competitor the UK. 

For Russia, in all truth, this is not a disaster, it is a small gift, though it was never meant to be such. President Putin has long been talking about repatriating the various off shore funds, however, no one knew how to do it. Enter the Franco-Prussians.

Russia is not react loudly not because it is weak or because some oligarchs are taking out hits on EU officials, though this last can not be rules out when people lose hundreds of millions of dollars to government and banker thieves.  Contrare, the Russian government is quite happy with this theft and the higher corporate taxes. While not all the money will return, a large portion will and the outflow to Cyprus and the rest of Europe, which can equally be hit with the same out and out theft, will slow. Indeed Europeans will look to Russia as well as the usual US and UK safe havens. 

On top of this, Russia is now seen as the hero and Orthodox brother of Cyprus for its various loans and the EU and the Germans in particular, as the enemy. The crowds standing outside the Cypriot parliament are waving Russian flags.

A win-win for a relatively small price.

For the Uk, this is only a lose lose as the Franco-Prussians out maneuver them and drive them further out of Europe and thus devaluing the cause of Anglo finance. That the British will seek revenge is a given. That revenge will not be hit contracts, what it will be is the traditional British role in the world. As the UK gets further and further pushed out of direct European politics, they will take up their usual role of spoiler of the peace. The British will move to create strife and cause war.

As for Cyprus, they are screwed regardless. By simply bringing this up for actual and realistic consideration, they have done unrepairable damage to their reputation that will take decades to fix, even as they have refused this blackmail. Of course the vote against was only the first battle and the EU is not done with them yet. Their economy, already damaged is now ruined, and thats exactly how the Franco-Prussians want it.

The roots of their evil runs much much deeper than just theft of bank accounts.

By destroying the credibility of Cyprus, through their puppets, they are making sure that Cyprus will be in to weak a position to grow and profit from the bonanza of gas wealth that is just now being developed. By driving the government and the economy into total ruin, the Franco-Prussians are making sure that they will be in position to become masters of that wealth. They will then attempt to route that gas to themselves and the Turks, thus further driving out the British and their North Seas gas and the Russians from the European market, while making trillions off of their own people.

Further, by leaving the door open to further grabs of depositor cash throughout Southern Europe, they are absolutely guaranteeing bank runs and collapse. But why.

Quite simple, actually.

What they are creating is absolute Ruin in the PIIGS and this is what is desired. The next round of credits will be more of the Greek variety, where Brussels, as the agent of the Franco-Prussians, will take full financial control of those nations, turning them into nothing more than vassals of the reborn Charmlamainian Empire, otherwise known as the Holy Roman Empire,  mark two.

What they are doing is building Fortress Europe, first financially and than soon militarily. The military will be in the guise of keeping peace in the vassal states. They are pushing us Russians, as well as the British, Americans and Chinese out to create their own monopoly, the desires of the slave people's be damned.

London, an Interesting But Disturbing Place

Recently, dear readers, I visited London, with my family, on a short vacation. It has been some decade since the last time I was there and then it was only for a short business trip.

London is an interesting place, with much to do and much of it at a pretty pence, and some very disturbing issues. I'll skip the tourist's guide, as you can find that on just about any place and concentrate on the things I found interesting/difficult.

First, was the ride in a taxi. We rode to the real estate office to sign paper work to rent an apartment (much cheaper than having a hotel room and in city center and much larger than your average hotel suite) and then to the apartment building. All total: £120 or $180! For that amount of money, I can rent a taxi in Moscow for 1 to 1.5 days. Literally, to ride from any of Moscow's airports to the city center, it would cost me about 2000-3000 rubles, or about $60-100 and that is regardless of how long it takes. Our ride was going up by 10 pence every 10 seconds!

Than there is the London famous Tube. Wow, what a shock. We can start by the absolutely chaotic entry area, where its hard to figure out who's coming in, who's coming out and where to buy tickets and for what. In London there are three different fares, based on from where you are coming from and to where you are heading. There is a special frequent riders card, which is broken down to peak rides and off peak rides, though its not always a price difference and depends how far you are riding. So, we had one train station, switch lines and four more stations. Cost per adult? Two pounds on the card. Two pounds sterling, that is 3 USD, or 91 rubles. So, if you have the card, a short ride on Tube will cost the same as 6 rides on the Moscow metro and on the Moscow metro you can go from one end to the other or just ride around all day and to all the stations and its one entry cost.

We did not have the card, obviously, so our ride was £4.50  per ride. That's 6.75 USD or about 200 rubles or enough for 20 rides on the Moscow metro....do the British, the average Londoner make 20 times the same as a Moscovite? Hardly. The average Moscow salary now stands at $2,000/month, or $24,000 and with a 13% tax rate, that means the average Moscovite keeps $20,880 in his pocket, per year. The average Londoner has a salary of £35,000 or $52,500 and with a top tax rate of 45%, has an average of 20% for the majority. So at 20%, that means the average person keeps $42,000 or just a bit over twice the Russian amount. So, while making just twice what the average Moscovite makes, a Londoner must pay (assuming he has a frequent rider card and is not on peak hours and not going far) five times what a Moscovite pays to go to work and home. At least children under 11 ride for free.

Thankfully, on the second day, when I was buying tickets, the cashier explained about getting a one week all you want to ride pass, for £35 each adult. Ok, so that is 1,575p, or enough to ride the Moscow metro 62 times (also you can ride buses and trams off of the same ticket, in Moscow).

The Tube's map is a spaghetti nightmare and depending on what routes you are taking some maps have them as one colour and others as another. It took me 10 minutes to find our way around on the map. 

There are no doors on the entry stations to the Tube, so the cold wind of winter blows through and down the narrow tunnels and stairs and so the whole of the place is windy and often quite cold.

On the bright side, London has a lot more stations than Moscow, however, it is obviously that they went for quantity over quality. Even the newly built stations in Moscow, which are drab compared to the Moscow central stations, are luxurious by the standards of the Tube.

Ok, off we go under ground: narrow passage ways, as opposed to the wide Moscow ones. Bland walls, with some green and other colour tiles. The trains arrive on time, at least, like ours, unlike say the NYC subway, which unlike the Metro or the Tube arrives as it feels like. Anyways, I digress, so we get on, or rather fight our way on. You see, only the central door is double, the doors on either end are single and narrow by that margin and people are trying to get on and off. Try getting on with a small child, it is a nightmare. The train itself, is also narrow. The Russian wagons do not look as sleek and sophisticated, but they are comfortable and wide, the cadellacs of  metro cars.

One last thing, there are bums sleeping in the metro and as many bums and homeless begging on the streets as there are in Moscow. That was shocking in the financial capital of the world, London....

Third thing: there were hardly any British working anywhere in London. From the German woman who ran the real estate office, to the Scottish driver, to the French girl selling me and mine tickets to the London Eye (worth going on by the way, even if quite a bit expense, at some £26/rider), to the Romanian waiters or the Italian retailers. Quite literaly, there were hardly any English, working anywhere in London. And the British unemployment rate is? Why 8% and I am sure that is under reported. Heck, I like the British accent and was looking forward to hearing it, what a surprise, I hardly did.

Fourth, the amount of non-white neighborhoods in London central. I know there's regions around London, just like around Paris, where white British is an endangered beast, but in central London? We passed several, riding in the taxi and I started counting. At one point, I got as many as 20 blacks before I saw one white and I have no way to know if she was British. Wow, things have changed incredibly in a decade.

And the toilets...why are all the toilets so bloody cold? You are in some warm restaurant and walk into the leu and its bloody cold. Public toilets are cold, that is one thing, but the private ones too?

I will finish on a positive note. The merchants, both the few English and others, were much more friendly and customer centric than our own in Moscow.  So were the people generally on the streets and in the metro. That is a talent that most of our own have yet to pickup. See, I am a positive person.

Does High Minimal Wage Make a Country Rich?

Does High Minimal Wage Make a Country Rich?

 

The Left leaning English daily, Moscow Times, published an article aimed to once again show the negativity of Russia. This is their standard operating procedure, to always at any opportunity, humiliate their own country and do it in a foreign language. They pander non stop to any enemy and make excuses for any slight to Russia or Russians, a wave of the so called "intelligentsia" whose predecessors gave us the Revolution and who themselves were first to flee their Frankenstein.

 

But I degrees.

 

Now back to the topic at hand. As with all Leftists, there is ever a very shallow understanding of economics involved. The Moscow Times correspondent goes to great lengths to point out that Russia has the third lowest minimum wage rate in Europe, in USD $223 (70% of subsistence level), while the European average wage is $823 and the American is $1,340. Of course, right off the bat, one notices that the article ignores giving the wage's percent of subsistence levels in Europe and the US. Why so? Mayhap this will not paint such a pretty picture?

 

First, lets keep in mind that only 20% of the Russian population lives below the poverty line, which makes Russia on par about average with the West. In the US, the official statistic is 16% (from the supposed richest nation in the world) and in the EU poverty levels vary from 9-28%, the median being 16.4%. There are two trends that should be viewed, however: 1. the average wages in the West are falling and falling rapidly. January saw the biggest drop in US wages, with a decrease of 3.6% and the poverty level is surging up, with 49 million Americans on food vouchers. Europe is in a similar boat in most nations, with over 1/3rd of Greeks alone already dependent on government handouts for daily survival. In Russia, 2012 saw a salary rise of 10-13% in the secondary cities and a 15% rise in Moscow and St.Petersburg, while inflation was around 7.5%, thus salaries are rising well ahead of inflation.

 

Now, lets look a bit closer at the minimum wage debate and its effects on the economies. Doing a little research, one comes up with the following statistics: the poverty income level in the US is considered $11,170, so the minimum wage at $16,080 is actually 144% of subsistence level. In the EU, the average poverty income level is considered 6,000 Euros or around $7,300 USD. With an average minimum wage of $823, that's $9,876 or 135% of subsistence levels.

 

Looking at just the snap shot, we Russians look vulgar and poor, and yet the economic indicators, such as income growth, poverty rates and debt (Russia's national debt is $48 billion out of a $1,6 trillion economy (about 3%), vs European and American debt levels of 80-200% of debt (nation dependent, Germany being the lowest and Italy the highest and the US in the middle) would indicate that high minimum wage levels are not a positive force.

 

Indeed, in all sense, all Western nations (and Japan included), that is all the G7 of the G8 are broke. As such, one must recognize that minimum wage and especially, high minimum wage has a negative impact over all on the economic growth of society. Sure this may sound counter intuitive but it is not. Minimum wage is a hidden tax on business and in this case, on small and medium business. Large businesses already pay above minimum wage, on average.

 

Why is this significant? The majority of the population is normally employed in small and medium businesses not in the large and super large (usually transnational) corporations. Equally, most of the new technology and new products come from the smaller sized layers and are eventually bought up by the larger sized businesses. But often enough, the smaller businesses grow and create new and serious competition to the larger businesses. However, the reason for large and mega corporations supporting something like an increase in minimum wage, when they already pay over it, is simple: a direct impact on up and coming competitors, which lowers the threat to them.

 

But why does this hurt the average minimum wage worker and the rest of the middle class and specifically lower class society? The reason for the decline in socio-economic standings is simple enough: a higher minimum wage is good for employees, those employees who get to keep their jobs and at the same number of hours, however, quite a few will be either down sized in hours or laid off to cover the higher wages of others. Further, this cuts into investment spending and growth. In a growing market, at least part of this can be passed on to consumers through higher prices, which of course then continues to trickle down and deprive the poorest of purchasing power. Yes, its a circular process that does hurt the very people targeted for help with the increase. However, when the market is already shrinking, inflation: wage and thus product/service cost, is not the correct way out.

 

Right now there is a typical Keynes approach in the Americas and EU, to the crisis of growing poverty and we should look at the analysis that is coming out of it. The drive is to raise minimum wage to supposibily increase wealth of society and cut down on the middle class. Typical leftist Keynes approach and as typically ignorant or ignoring the repeating evidence of policy failure. This interview from the American addition of Voice of Russia, sums this up nicely Analyst: Raising Minimum Wage Will Force Small Businesses to Lay Off Employees

 

Thus, once again, instead of deciding with emotions, as is common with the Left, let us look at actual economic results of previous programs and not be influenced by Western backed, Leftist media to follow the Western Pipers down the road to economic self destruction.
