I would vote for the raise just as long as the anti estate tax is not attached we need that tax to make up for outsourcing corporation storing money in the Caymans etc.

Raising the minimum wage may sound like a good idea but it isn't. The only people who really work for minimum wage are teens and unskilled adults. Raising it causes all costs to everyone to go up. Wages for educated and skilled adults don't go up proportionately, just costs. You would make more money, but everything would cost more for everyone.

I totally agree with therego2, except the part where she said, "most of the people working for minimum wage are unskilled adults or teenagers."

NOT ME. All that does is screw everyone except the less than 3% of the population earning minimum wage.

I'm beginning to think there is a real attempt to destroy the
money system. And we play right along with it. If we keep raising
prices, thing are going to go bust. We need to lower prices.
It will take confrontation, and sacrifice.
Think anyone is willing to do it?

Illegal immigrants want it to go up because they'll be way more jobs employers will claim US citizens won't do.
