It's not raised based on anything concrete, that's for sure.
People know well ahead of time when a minimum change occurs.
That, uh, doesn't mean it's not increased on a whim.
People are already making above minimum wage, so obviously the 'fairy dust' has figured out that 94% of the labor force should make more than minimum wage anyway.
But somehow the other 6% of workers don't need to be concerned with the market for their labor, right?
What else do I assume when you beat the same drum that they do? They replace fact with myth, ignore evidence and history.
So you say.
Neither you nor they have shown any evidence that gives your argument any merit. "Hey, it's only 6% so let's get rid of it!" That's not an argument
I agree, that's why I didn't make that argument.
The basic reason for not having a minimum wage is that it's not necessary. It does not solve any perceived problems, nor does it create any real positive outcomes. The negative impacts are many and far-reaching. Then there's the aspect that it's the government getting in the middle of private contracts, which is a problem all on its own.
There's no good objective argument for the minimum wage. It's all emotional and arbitrary.
