you claim that minimum wage increases don't cause recessions? I will enjoy watching you squirm out from under that claim." Yes, that's what I claim. ... Why are you so invested in keeping a "working poor" class? The facts are once again at odds with your beliefs. The best squirm you can do is a straw man argument? Historically every increase int eh minimum wage has been followed by roughly 18 months by a recession. It appears your common sense is uncommon. What the hell is wrong with you? Brokers' hedge funds can pay out millions in bonuses but the raising of the minimum wage will throw us into depression???? You are just plain ole crazy!
