And, where in the thread again was an instantaneous $5.00 raise to the minimum wage mentioned? Alluded to? Implied?

You are absolutely right, I'm not following the thread. I'm following the discussion, but the thread is a figment of your imagination, and I don't know how to do that.

    We were talking about whether large sweeping economic changes are a bad idea and whether incremental changes are better. You were arguing against that and I used minimum wage as an example.

    Im tired of explaining things to you, so let's stop here.

    Let me try to explain something to you. "Large" is not a fixed concept, it's a relative measure. Can you point to me where any bill or proposal for increasing the minimum wage has proposed doing it overnight? They always get phased in, even in the most progressive proposals. When you say "large", or even "large sweeping", no body is going to presume that you are jumping to something that far out of scope.
