Hey, let's make the minimum wage $100,000 a year, or $50 an hour.

Naw, let's make it $500 an hour, and everyone's a MILLIONAIRE!

$10 / hour would take the incentive away from these people to stay home instead of working. It would also save the government billions by making people in-eligible for assistance.

You could make it $20/hour but that could become counter-productive. It would hurt the economy too much and would not remove very many more people from assistance.

That is my problem. Minimum wage should be enough to take people that work off the welfare rolls of the country.
