One comment on the minimum wage article.
It ends like this:
The bottom line: Dropping the minimum wage could reduce unemployment among teenagers and other low-skilled laborers — a small part of the workforce.
True enough. Unfortunately for their thesis unless our Dad owns a business, that's where we all start out with our first jobs and gain the work experience for later ones.
It's interesting how they strongly defend the minimum wage and at the same time tell us how few people it affects. I smell a rat.
Eliminate the Federal minimum wage. States can do what they like. See what happens.
