re: Righties - if you had a choice between minimum wage and unions

quote:

Choose-

1) A Constitutional amendment protecting the right of businesses and unions to form union shop agreements (invalidating so called "right to work" laws, which are really just right to freeload laws) - AND - a Constitutional amendment abolishing minimum wage laws.

-OR-

2) Raising the minimum wage to $12/hour and indexing it to inflation, while maintaining the status quo on unions (allowing states to effectively destroy them at will).


I would personally choose 1. With strong unions minimum wages laws aren't really needed.

I would choose neither. I like the whole free market idea and would prefer to set my own wages (if I owned a business) instead of being ordered what to pay my own employees. Ill pay more if I can afford and/or want better quality employees.
