[QUOTE="diamond_dave:557336"]awol said:[QUOTE][URL]http://www.cnn.com/2007/POLITICS/01/10/minimum.wage.ap/index.html[/URL] wtf, does anyone else realize that this just fucks up the economy? Raise minimum wage and the cost of everything goes up, thereby nullifying the temporary benefit that the minimum wage earners gained and ultimately just crippling the US dollar.[/QUOTE] raising minimum wage will not raise the cost of living. it WILL raise wages across the board in lower income brackets, which is good. low-wage earners do not have enough buying power (even with a raise) to affect things such as the price of cars, houses, rents, etc. they are just barely scraping by as it is. some people work minimum wage or entry level jobs because it's all they are able to do, or because they enjoy it. it doesn't mean that they are not contributing to society, and it doesn't mean that they shouldn't enjoy the same quality of life as anyone else. raising minimum wage means that rich people have to share with the people who do their work and make their opulent lives possible. i'm ok with that. p.s. ANON-- if your company has enough money to give you a bonus, they SHOULD be sharing the wealth with everyone (i.e. raising wages). not giving bonuses to people like you who only help to perpetuate socioenconomic divide.[/QUOTE]
