Returning to sanity, it's far better to let the market set the wage. Minimum wage work is not worth what is being paid for it in most locations now (How much skill does it take to flip a burger? And for crying out loud they always get the orders wrong anyways!!)

Let the market set the wage when we have millions of people coming into the country that will work for 70 cents an hour? I don't buy that one.

We need to execute the entire program. And start by executing these non-uniformed enemy combatants whenever we catch them.

If you have a minimum wage the employer will hire illegals and pay them under the table. After all the illegals are criminals anyway what can they do about it. They just want the jobs.

The minimum wage prices Americans out of their own labor market. No one is going to pay $15 per hour for work that is only worth $5 an hour.

Do away with the minimum wage and the worker and employer are freed up to come to a mutually beneficial agreement.
