By what common law or constitutional law is there a right to wage increases? If someone will work at an offered wage so be it. The minimum wage is politicians buying votes with other peoples money. Low level wage stagnation after inflation is not evil. We need entry level jobs and there’s a new crop of workers entering the work force every year. There’s no reason why it should change.
The correct minimum wage is zero.
The correct minimum wage is zero if you want to solidify the country club Republican vote and to forever forgo becoming the working class party. If so then by all means promote the idea no minimum wage. If the Republicans get behind an increase in the min wage where are the country clubbers going to go?
