I’ve never seen once seen a Free Republic minimum wage eliminator ever acknowledge that having an open border with a third country makes a difference in the minimum wage debate. It’s like you all are brainwashed robots. It gives thinking Americans pause and makes Free Republic look kooky.
I don't support a federal minimum wage, I think it's a state issue. If that makes me an eliminator, you don't have to answer.
If it doesn't, explain to me how a minimum wage inhibits criminal employers from employing illegal aliens. Seems to me a higher minimum wage enhances the value of illegal labor to those willing to illegally employ them.
Do you think an above market federal minimum price for marijuana would decrease drug transit across the border?
