The Congressional Budget Office recently concluded that bringing the minimum wage up to $15 an hour would mean 1.3 million fewer jobs. I don't know what time frame they were looking at, but regardless that translates to about three points on the unemployment scale.
A lot of people would make that trade!
Tell the unlucky ones that they should be happy staying home and collecting welfare with no job!
I wouldn't make that trade.
the advocates for $15 an hour love to tell these [BLEEP] stories about people trying to feed their families with minimum wage jobs. I have no doubt that there are people in that situation, but I would bet they are not typical of minimum wage earners. This is why we have the EITC. Give wage boost to people who actually are trying to support families, and only to them.

My fellow southpaw Mark Brunell will probably always be my favorite Jaguar.
