A few of my friends are law students, and I need some advice. How knowledgable are law students, or people who have finished law school? And do your friends, who are lawyers, hate being asked questions?

Federal minimum wage stands at $5.15 per hour (most likely increasing to $7.25 an hour over the next two years).

Taking into account that the cost-of-living varies state-by-state (and some states have their own, higher, minimum wages), what is a fair and appropriate minimum wage?

NOTE:
The best answer will go to the person who also explains “why” his/her idea of a minimum wage is most fair and appropriate. It’s okay if you want to get a bit off-topic (social welfare, healthcare, etc.) but make sure you’re answering the question. If you don’t think there should be a minimum wage, also explain your reasoning.

I have my own opinion but I’ll share in the Asker’s Rating comments.

The best way to stop using so much gas is to deport eleven million illegal immigrants! That would be eleven million less people using our gas. The price of gas would come down If you think this is a good solution to both the problems, forward it to your friends.

Bring our troops home from Iraq to guard the border. When they catch an illegal immigrant crossing the border, hand him a canteen, rifle and some ammo and ship him to Iraq .

Tell him if he wants to come to America then he must serve a tour in the military. Give him a soldier's pay while he's there and tax him on it.

After his tour, he will be allowed to become a citizen since he defended this country.

He will also be registered to be taxed and be a legal patriot. This option will probably deter illegal immigration and provide a solution for the troops in Iraq and the aliens trying to make a better life for themselves.

If they refuse to serve, ship them to Iraq anyway, without the canteen, rifle or ammo.

Associated Press: January 9, 2007
CARACAS, VENEZUELA - As Venezuela embarked on another six years under Hugo Chávez, the president announced plans to nationalize power and telecommunications companies. He also said he wanted a constitutional amendment to strip the Central Bank of its autonomy and would soon ask the National Assembly, solidly controlled by his allies, to approve "a set of revolutionary laws" by presidential decree.

"We're heading toward socialism, and nothing and no one can prevent it," he said in a televised address after swearing in his new cabinet on Monday.

Chávez also said lucrative oil projects in the Orinoco River basin involving foreign oil companies should be under national ownership. Critics say he is following in the footsteps of Cuban leader Fidel Castro.

And if you by any chance know about such a lawyer who has been known to care about the environment and helping people in his spare time, please let me know. I want him to be passionate about what he is doing. He has to specialize in getting compensation from huge corporations though.

a letter of permission that he found out was required. It has been only three months, but he needs to straighten things in terms of Visa with the school and his part-time work place.
He is desperately seeking any recommendations from people with similar experience. Thanks.
