Economically stunted idiots....both large and small business owners will hire ‘less’ of these workers coupled with higher prices of goods will create less jobs and perhaps discourage less entrepreneurs to start businesses. Minimum wage is only for starter jobs not career vocations. The fools in D.C. are steering this nation into the dungeons!

As I pointed out in a post yesterday, conservatives said the increase in the minimum wage would trigger inflation. They increased the minimum wage, and are about to do it again, and sure enough inflation is at its highest in 26 years. Conservatives said the increase would lead to inflation, liberals told us it would make America's family more economically secure. Inflation is at its highest in 26 years, every economic indicator is predicting recession.
Who was right in their forecast?

Liberals told us cutting taxes would cause revenue to go down, they said way down. We said cutting taxes would result in increased revenue. Whose forecast proved more accurate?

Liberals told us a surge in troop strength in Iraq would lead to more violence and unrest, probably even a civil war. Conservatives said a surge, properly done, would result in less violence and less chance for civil war. Whose forecast proved closer to accurate?

Liberals told us putting missiles in Europe would lead to an escalating cold war. Conservatives said it would help end the USSR as we knew it. Guess who was right?

Liberals told us that taking the WOT to the enemy, when and where we found them, would mean more attacks on US interests at home and abroad. Conservatives said taking it to them would lessen their appetite for messing with us. Do I need to ask the question again?

I could go on, but I think the point is pretty well made by now.

Lesson to be learned: Ask a liberal what to do, then do exactly the opposite.

Employment: Do Minimum Wage Increases Benefit Workers and the Economy?

The minimum wage robs Peter to pay Paul.

Liberals use every chance they get to set prices of private monetary transactions, an avowed goal of communism.

“We have begun to make America’s families more economically secure, by raising the minimum wage . . . ” +++++++++++++++++++ Nonsense. There will be higher unemployment, more part time hours given vs. full time. While Pelosi gloats nothing changes for the better. If low wage is the problem, Nancy, why not raise the minimum to $25 per hour?

Refresh my memory. Did this minimum wage increase become law as a result of an overridden presidential veto?
