How is this in any way taking advantage of people? Cha Cha is offering an opportunity to make money from doing simple online tasks. People wouldn't do it if they thought the money wasn't worth the time.
As a side note, the evidence against minimum wage as an effective policy is staggering. The only reason it persists today is because it is politically convenient.
- adamhowell 17y ago> As a side note, the evidence against minimum wage as an effective policy is staggering You realize that 197 countries use a minimum wage, right, not just us? Of course there's evidence against it -- just like there's evidence for it -- and the fact that it's a hot-button topic should have made me realize before the fact that people would go through and downvote all my comments. I really couldn't care less if HN supports the idea of paying US citizens $2.50/hr. I'm certainly done arguing about it.
- huangm 17y agoThe tone of all of your comments makes it clear that your beliefs about minimum wage are unchangeable. My guess is that people wouldn't downvote you if came across as more willing to hear another side. This is clearly something you feel very strongly about (which is interesting to me personally, because I see no substance to the argument in favor of minimum wage), but discussion is more productive if you are open-minded.
