Nothing wrong with that. Why not $5,000? Here is what the NY Slime said a while back: The Right Minimum Wage: $0.00

For a state that is not in the tropics or even the subtropics, we sure have a lovely bunch of cocoNUTS.

will make exceptions in law for businesses making less than $2 million in profit

Yeah, and watch how those profits over $2 million suddenly "vaporize"

Townhall has gotten all uppity about adblockers. Let ‘em fall on the ash heap with the Soviets.

The government does not have the right to set a minimum or maximum hourly rate. End of discussion.

There are many nitwits in politics. Unfortunately, there are many pinheads who will vote for them and idiotic positions. What pathetic loons.

$26.79, and not a penny more!

You have to draw the line somewhere.

The only ones that benefit from high minimum wage rates, are the neighboring states. If the neighboring states support that kind of insanity too, then, there will be plenty of red states willing to accept the new businesses moving in.

Minimum wages are for teenage kids and retired folks who want something low-stress to do in order to put a few extra dollars in their pockets.

If anybody in between is concerned with minimum wage - they need to look in the mirror and see the problem.
