All the arguments you are hearing are the same ones you hear all the time. I think, in my opinion, that it hurts Republicans when we don't think people that work in hotels, nursing homes, fast-food,etc....deserve to be paid better. We all talk advantage of the services they provide, or probably will one day.

Market forces should determine wages paid.

Actually, the best thing we can do for wages is not to make more laws, but to enforce the IMMIGRATION laws we have.

When you take advantage of the services they provide, by all means, pay them what the service is worth to you at that time. The government has no business stipulating the value of the exchange.
