[QUOTE="loudshirt, post: 1631657, member: 10585"] I am by no means an expert on jobs, the economy or much of anything for that matter. Raising minimum wage screws people in the lower end of the income bracket. Wal mart and all other retailers will adjust the price of goods to continue to make the same profit. Some retailers will use that as an excuse to "over adjust" the price. So now your minimum wage job actually buys you less as a result. One thing I would like to see is an age based minimum wage scale. Your 16-18yr olds would get a way lower minimum wage than your 18+. Why does a 16 yr old need $10 an hour to bag groceries? [/QUOTE]
