I think the national minimum wage should be abolished.

I agree with what you said. I just don't see how it's doable, given today's political climate. The battle line is drawn at whether we raise the minimum wage or not and, if we raise it, how much. Eliminating it is not on the table and I don't see any impetus for putting it there.

For that reason, as well as a general preference for state's rights, I think the national minimum wage should be abolished. I think it should strictly be a local law, and it should take into account local conditions, if it is in law at all.

Great idea. Follow the constitution and allow greater flexibility and local control, but I don't think it will fly politically.
