what countries support a living wage?? 1/2 the people in the world live on less than $2 per day. that's a true statistic, by the way. another true statistic is the fact that it would take less than 0.1% of the world's annual income to fix the world's problems (like poverty, malnutrition, disease). if anything, the u.s. should be less concerned with paying big-time business moguls and more concerned with helping better our planet (and i dont mean by galloping around trying to fix wars like we've been doing) - i mean developing some real long-term strategies to protecting our earth b/c let's face it, we only have one!

Do you really think minimum wage is designed to support a family ?? It's a starting / beginning wage stupid !! If you or anyone else is trying to support a family on minimum wage, then you're either a retard or a Liberturd retard, and you don't have the slightest idea how a business works. Do you think big business pays your salary ?? No, the consumer does !! And when salaries go up, so do product costs !!

I beleive that here in the US , we at the bottom or middle class america, can not make it unless we have some one else helping
or we make at least $15.oo an hour, We would rather send millions over seas in stead of use the money for our own people

Sure we should set the minumum wage at $1 million dollars per year that way we would all be rich

When was the last time you saw raising the minimum wage do anything, but help the taxman move up tax brackets & cause inflation?

U.S. join anything??? That will be the day. They think they have to be the leader always.. can never give anyone else any credit for actually doing good.

This sounds like a "loaded" question, like when did you stop beating your wife.
