What is your solution to prevent people from being a loser? Free housing? Free food? Free education? Surely if we provide those things they don't have to be a loser.

Minimum wage workers, for the most part, are worth far less than what they are paid now. Do you not understand the labor and wage market, portcityplantationdemgirl?

If we raised minimum wage to 12-14 dollars an hour, then the lower income classes would have more money to spend in the economy, which would create more demand for products and services, which would stimulate the economy.

What would happen to the cost of goods and services? Increase, decrease, or no change?

With your support of a minimum wage increase, do also propose legislation to prevent businesses from raising prices of their goods & services to cover this cost?
