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.
