SHOULD THE MINIMUM WAGE BE INCREASED. how much?

Answer 1

There should not be a federal minimum wage. Each state should set a minimum wage that best fits their standards. The federal government can not set one standard that fits all states.

Answer 2

ALL PROOF IS THAT YES, A MINIMUM WAGE INCREASE IS BOTH NEEDED AND DEMANDED BY CUSTOMERS TOO. Along with it, really should go more and better training where that is directly the responsibility of the company, not society.
The rate of inflation outgrew the rates that the minimum wage was ever increased by. THAT ALONE is proof enough for it.
And just look at all these businesses all offering a whole plethora of things, where the companies stocks for those supplies never needs refilling as they just do not sell enough of it all. A WEAK SOCIETY DIRECTLY MEANS A WEAK ECONOMY.

Answer 3

The minimum wage should be about $35k per annum ($17.50 an hour) for an 18 year old or older. If 16 about $13p/h.

Answer 4

It should be increased to $0.

Answer 5

If it were adjusted to inflation 📈 I'd say $25/hr.

Answer 6

NO, especially not federally..

All it will do is put people who need the raise in a higher tax bracket while at the same time the cost of living will go up to offset it.

Each time the Min. wages has went up the cost of living has went up just a little higher... Its their way of keeping the poor poor and the rich rich..

Wait and see... when McDonald's has to start charging three or 4 dollars more for a burger then they charge now just to pay their employees will you still want raises higher for entry school level jobs meant for high school students and not for people with a actual family..

Answer 7

The popular rate is $15 per hour, but that is a short-term fix at best. What we should be pushing towards to address the wealth inequality problem is worker ownership of larger companies via real ESOP reform and converting many smaller corporate entities into employee-owned cooperatives. Tie those to local economic development organizations, which can act as a funding source for additional cooperative and ESOP companies (think a super-credit union), and you have a chance to help communities round out their economic base and aid those in distress to arise from the ashes. By spreading ownership, you give a broader range of people a piece of the wealth pie and you have an opportunity to tap into the entrepreneurial spirit of the worker-owners.

Answer 8

There should be no wage in general we should all just free trade and give to each other and the industry should be about volunteer ship not self gratification and special interest and anarchy.And yes wage should be increased as far as your answer goes.

Answer 9

only for white people

Answer 10

Yes, but at least according to your location, like how some companies offer a geopay on top of a normal salary. (If you were to reside in NYC or San Fransisco, you would recieve a larger geopay than someone residing in Indianapolis, or somewhere with a lower cost of living).
