"Despite evidence from around the world that minimum wage laws can price low-skilled workers out of jobs, the U.S. Department of Labor is planning..."

Dr. Sowell is the best and most articulate conservative observer of the American scene today. (OK, here it comes...) However, and I mean this as a comment on typical conservative commentary, if a Lib had written this it would be: Despite overwhelming, consensus evidence from everywhere in the world that minimum wage laws create insurmountable obstacles that make it absolutely impossible for the hapless, energetic low-skilled workers to find jobs so they can feed, clothe and provide necessary health care for their children, the U.S. Department of Labor is planning... Conservatives have to learn how to provide PERSUASIVE arguments where everything is stated emphatically. IMHO

Mostly, this will just make criminals out of the sick and elderly for their informal hiring practices.

Thank you for the ping, Jaz.

The destruction and fundamental change of our country continues, and there is no one in the upper echelons of our country who will do a thing about it.
