Republicans don’t want people working for a “minimum wage”... we want people to rise above. There shouldn’t be ANY minimum... If there is, it should only be to protect young workers, just starting out.

Artificially raising it, by government fiat, just keeps young people from being able to find work. It’s heartless.
