No, minimum wage is not a proven job killer at all. And yes, our economy is growing. A real good sign is when they have to adjust the employment figures upward. The figures are always a lagging indicator. Now granted, we can always tip into recession. I know some people are anticipating that because they think the Republicans will stonewall on revenue increases and we will go over the fiscal cliff. But that is something totally voluntary. In reality, of course, that employee must bring some multiple of that in revenue or you can't justify having him around Well duh, i-node. This is why your idea that cutting taxes will encourage hiring was so stupid.
