Quote:Lol, you mean worker's wages should be in line with productivity, profits, and retained earnings of a corporation?


Man, that sounds revolutionary! That will ruin our country, I'll tell you what.

Raising the minimum wage, nor setting it at an arbitrary $15/hr, would resolve income inequality in this country. In reality, it could (and would with $15) make it worse and force more people onto welfare. However, without looking at the economics, I can safely say $7.25 is probably too low. Then again, it varies depending on which state you live in. It should be a states issue, really.
