Did not want to hijack SPOOK's post below so I started a new thread. Regarding minimum wage, it is not and never will be a "living wage" no matter how high they push it. There are too many side effects from raising the minimum wage too high. Businesses will simply pass along the higher cost of labor. This will raise prices for everybody. At the same time, it will effectively lower the wages of the skilled trades. As the wage "floor" rises, it will raise prices as well. Simple economics 101. Supply versus demand. As people have seemingly more money, it will create higher demand for consumer goods. This will cause prices to rise as demand rises. This will raise the overall cost of living, and will trigger demands for even more money from the working people. My humble opinion is that these over inflated minimum wages will only cause prices to increase, and the result will be to break even in terms of income versus buying power. Where it will hurt is a phenomenon called tax inflation. As income rises, tax rates also rise resulting in a net loss of buying power. My opinion is that minimum wages should rise at no more than the rate of inflation. Let us recall that minimum wage is generally an entry level wage. Not intended to support a family or make large purchases. Just a starting point for entry level workers.
