In the Danish radio there were statements from three happy groups of people.
The unions, The employers and The politicians.
If that holy trinity agree something is bad, then it surely must be.
This headline is highly misleading. This is no court ruling yet, merely the recommendation of the Advocate General of the Court of Justice of the EU. This is an indication but the judges of the court do not have to follow that recommendation whatsoever. Let’s wait for the ruling before wasting a lot of words.
I think the EU is overstepping here. Each country should decide if they want minimum wage or not. There’s pros and cons to it.
The problem is that the Lisbon Treaty specifically says that this is not the jurisdiction of EU. Not that anyone is against minimum wage.
$750 p. week? so thats about $150 a day
Isn’t that a bad thing if labor unions aren’t really able to defend living wages enough? Wouldn’t that dismantle their bargaining power?
Awesome, we like that unions and employers work it out by themselves instead of the government or laws mandating things.

For those who wonder why Denmark and Sweden opposes this, it’s because a minimum wage enforced on these countries would significantly lower the wage of a large portion of their workforce.
The unions are so strong in these countries, that wages even for “lowly” positions far exceed what any minimum wage would be, so forcing minimum wage on the entire EU would give companies all the ammunition they need to fight the demands of the unions.
Nice. If the EU tries really hard to push this and the court would let them is it something that can be vetoed?
