>What other conditions do you have in mind in conjunction of minimum wage rise? El Nino?

Try positive economic developments, such as new markets, finding new natural resources, tariffs, et al.

>How is it compared to $0.00/hr?

If people were desperate enough to work for a buck an hour here, you'd be for that?

Do you know what it's like to raise a family on $5.15/hr? If that's the best we can do, then we are seriously f**ked.

How is it compared to $0.00/hr?


Do you understand how you live in fear and come from a place of shortage? Of course, if you raise the minimum wage, there will be less jobs and you will become unemployed. With you, there can be no other alternative. Fortunately, there are other alternatives.
