CJ, The minimum wage went up until it was a living wage. According to Wikipedia, the minimum wage never went above $10 and change (once again, measuring in today's dollars). The only reason minimum wage went up shortly after 1938 was due to wartime inflation. Unless you think $10 and change was ever a "living wage," you don't have a point. A living wage would be a vehicle to get us back to unemployment below 5% Cause all of the jobs that got sent overseas would come back, AMIRITE? Tenchusatsu
