Not that anyone cares, but I don't mind Sanders to much except for him wanting to raise the minimum wage.

I get how it's pretty lame that huge companies (Wal-Mart, Home Depot, most fast food places, etc.) enjoying paying the bare minimum, so there's this astronomical difference between the pay of the majority of their employees and the executives at the top. But raising the minimum wage is a pretty broad approach to the issue that can cause more harm than good in my eyes.

I have a buddy named Dan. He had a dream of owning and operating his own coffee roastery. Dude loves coffee as much as I love sex, so more power to him. He's been in business for the better half of a decade now, and I've seen his family deal with some tough financial situation. They're getting to be more stable now after having to sell their house, and do other rearrangements with their lifestyle and things are looking better year after year. Raising the minimum wage would be a complete disaster for his company. It would make him reduce his staff so his overhead doesn't blow him out of business. It's almost like a raise in the "minimum wage" is a direct reduction to his "minimum wage."

I'm no economic genius by any means, but I just don't agree with how a broad approach to the wage gap such as raising the minimum wage will help people especially in the long term. If anything it will make people who want to own a small business have a rougher time than ever before, and more large companies that can absorb that larger overhead will still reign supreme in the job market.

But with that said there's no fucking way I'd ever vote for Trump, and if it ends up between Trump and Sanders I'm going with Sanders.
