@georgeorwell3501 Firstly, You don't deserve to use Orwell for a username.
Second. The minimum wage was established just SO, people would be guaranteed at least, a decent starting wage for a job. And many smaller businesses don't even have to follow the law on that. And sure as hell, larger companies would be damn glad if there was none. And as for an employee, employer. Hashing out wages. Since when would you go to any employer, when you're asking for a job and tell them your worth?
The minimum wage just ensures you'll know what to expect to be able to even live, off of it. Not everyone gets to go to college or a trade school right out of highschool. But are reasonably sure they can ojt, a job and do it well enough to satisfy the employer. Because just because there's a minimum wage. Doesn't mean you can't get fired, if you do a crummy job.
The minimum wage is ridiculously low right now anyway. Probably because someone like you in the Republican clusterfu--, said no, to raising it. All the white raising CEOs salaries go through the roof. But that's just fine with you...right?
