The minimum wage is basically a socialist trick to keep poor people off the first step of the ladder of success.

If the minimum wage was eliminated, an entry level employer could hire one or two more employees and initiate the most important job experience for anyone, the first job.

When someone is unable to obtain a first job because of artificially high wage scales, everyone loses.

And it's racist to boot. It doesn't effect upper middle class white kids as much as it keeps black urban youths from getting their first job. Racist!
