If *they* raise the minimum wage, then *you* will pay more.
Like some others mentioned here on punaweb, raising it is a tax scam.
Social security/medicare tax will get more money, sales taxes (GET) will get more when inflation kicks in, unions will demand that they get raises for their people since they used to make "X" amount above minimum and now they are making less than "X" above it, etc.
Then where does that leave the rest of us, except for paying more for the same goods and services we used to get?
