What are the issues related to the Minimum wage? Is it fair or not? How does it affect the economy in Michigan
Answer:
Minimum wage is a total sham.
The free market should determine where wages are set, not the government.
If people are willing to work for less, they should be allowed to. If people are not willing to work for the wages, the employers will be forced to raise them.
Minimum wage is simply a way that the government makes a gesture of saying they're looking out for the lower class. However, once minimum wage goes up inflation happens right along with it to cancel it out. It's no real gain at all.
It wont make a difference. Minimum wage is already $7.25 in California and we have the richest economy in the country.
Minimum wage is an insult to the people who actually went out and attempted to get some sort of skills. Yet, an unskilled laborer can flip burgers and receive almost as much as a skilled secretary, just because the government said so.
my sixteen year old nephew makes almost double the minimum wage in Michigan. The only place I know of that pays minimum wage to english speaking citizens, are college campuses. Raising minumum wage won't do anything except encourage more illegal aliens to cross the border.
This is quite simple, if you raise the minimum wage you raise the cost of doing business which increases inflation and negates the increase in the wage increase. I just makes people for like they are doing better and gets politicians more votes. Otherwise, why not raise the minimum wage to a million dollars and hour and we could all be rich?
