Mj, your own article said layoffs following min. wage increases .. You're being excessively generous in referring to that particular piece of propaganda as an article. It's list of cherry-picked studies with cherry-picked conclusions... The minimum wage helped South African whites at the expense of blacks. Bauer (1959). South Africa in 1959. How about apartheid? "In 1953, the Public Safety Act and the Criminal Law Amendment Act were passed, which empowered the government to declare stringent states of emergency and increased penalties for protesting against or supporting the repeal of a law. The penalties included fines, imprisonment and whippings. In 1960, a large group of blacks in Sharpeville refused to carry their passes; the government declared a state of emergency. The emergency lasted for 156 days, leaving 69 people dead and 187 people wounded. Wielding the Public Safety Act and the Criminal Law Amendment Act, the white regime had no intention of changing the unjust laws of apartheid." www-cs-students.stanford.edu Apartheid was no big deal for blacks in SA for ye 'old white Republicans and mj....it's raising the minimum wage that hurt blacks. jttmab
