  1. What? That's kind of weird how giving poor low wage workers more money helps them spend more money thus stimulating the economy. Who would've thought.

  2. No they won't! No they won't! No they won't! It's never happened before and never will. Inflation goes up regardless of the minimum wage. It will continue to increase until the dollar collapses. I'd say the wealth gap contributes to inflation more so than does the min. wage.

  3. Tom Howard Really? Then why did the Great Depression end shortly after the Fair Labor Standards Act was enacted? Franklin D. Roosevelt was one of the greatest presidents in U.S. history. It would be very disrespectful to FDR to get rid of the minimum wage laws that he used to fix the country and the economy. Then again, history DOES repeat itself. Maybe we deserve another depression if we don't learn.

  4. Tom Howard I can't tell you that, but only that your war against it is detrimental to the working class. Also, the war against minimum wage has already been won. It's lower than ever! You've won the war against it. No need to argue when your side won. Be content.

  5. Tom Howard Arguing against minimum wage is beating a dead horse. The anti-minimum wage people already got their way.
