The big mac index has zero to do with inflation. Your own argument says that inflation adjusted the big mac costs less than it did 13 years ago. The big mac index has to do with currency valuations, like a FOREX market that gives the relative value of the currency through a simple method of using the big mac. They aren't even sort of the same thing.

Minimum wage doesn't work. Unless capitalism is destroyed, the best you can do is destroy the middle class with Keyesian manipulation if you even try to make minimum wage work. Manipulating wage has always been a slight of hand to get other laws passed which eventually collapse the economy.

and you base this on what? your complete inability to rebut anything i've had to say? your propensity to run away from positions you once espoused just because you refuse to repeat them in this thread?
history doesn't start anew with each thread, ya know.

Those who don't understand why minimum wage will always fail its goal need to study Engel's Law.

The Big Mac Index is published by The Economist as an informal way of measuring the purchasing power parity (PPP) between two currencies and provides a test of the extent to which market exchange rates result in goods costing the same in different countries. It "seeks to make exchange-rate theory a bit more digestible."
No inflation mentioned... It compares different currencies.

apparently they do believe the big mac index can show us a thing or two about inflation.
