As posted on the other thread on this subject, the following message was published many years ago, utilizing Walter Williams' warning about the negative consequences of minimum wage laws on families and those who most need work experience and earnings. His words were true then, and he repeated them on Stossel just this week.

Min. Wage

Dr. Williams understands and has been teaching, speaking, and writing about the tragic consequences of the so-called "progressive" policies which Democrats (and Republican "progressives") have inflicted upon Americans--all in the name of "helping" them.

Slavery to government is no better than slavery to individual masters. Yet, the "regressives" continue to buy power and influence by promoting policies that destroy opportunity, prosperity, and freedom for our own and future generations.

This position on Romney's part is an example of how he has succeeded in the "freedom of individual enterprise" environment left to us by the Founders, without gaining a deep and abiding understanding or commitment to the principles they incorporated into our nation's founding documents.

Oooops. Should have said, “He repeated them on “Stossel” recently.”
