Should minimum wage be raised in the US? My thing is There is one unspoken aspect to it. How it effects small businesses. McDonald's and burger King can and should raise their minimum wage. But mom and pop diners and such can't afford it sometimes.
You are asking the wrong question. You must aks: How is it possible to work at one of the large chains a full time job and not be able to sustainably life on that wages? How come a burger can be sold at 1$? It is NOT the effect of large scale production. You also should ask yourself why a huge percentage of people have 2 or more jobs. It isn't that those are idiots too silly to know and ask for the value of their work. SO HOW COME?
