[QUOTE="rickyb, post: 2103563, member: 56035"] ive never heard that before, but thats very interesting. but i sorta doubt its true, and also the business community are the ones who oppose minimum wage increases right? my personal conclusion on minimum wage is they should increase it so that theres some kind of equilibrium between workers well being, and the number of workers who lose their jobs after the minimum wage is too high. and then after having raise it, if the wage is still too low for a decent standard of living assuming a 40 hour work week, then the government should come in and just give the workers cash to make up the difference. personally i think the work week should be closer to 30 hours because its been a few decades now since they cut the work week from 80 to 60 hours to 40. ultimately, workers should have never been put in a situation where they dont have voting power at the jobs they work in.
