      I support the idea of the same salary and this is given over your own performance in the work.

      That means that if you make your 100% of your capability and other person in other job which is less capable does their 100% too, will get the same salary.

      I don’t support the idea of different salaries by capabilities since every job is equal for me.

      Yes of course but this person is saying don’t raise min wage. I think? If not the person is correct.

        It’s hard to portray subtlety over the web. I also think that the person opposes raising min wage, I just wanted to give them a different point of view.

    it's odd how people doing the math to write tweets about why wages should be lower tend to compute hourly rate * 40 * 52 weeks per year. Are they assuming zero days off per year, or assuming that minimum wage employees are actually salaried?

      This. Also I heard someone say that everyone who works “normal” 8 hour shifts actually has 1 of those hours dedicated to lunch break so it’s not paid, I don’t know first-hand because I’ve never worked that kind of job

      Also shouldn’t they be accounting for taxes? One of my jobs I do have an hourly wage but it’s before tax (and the tax is ~8.8%)
