I work very hard. I've hauled hay, mucked out stalls, mowed, installed fence posts, etc.
I want the middle and lower classes to have a chance to rise up, but they cannot do so when they are paid $7.25 per hour. Why work at all? It would make more sense to get government assistance.
Do you like subsidizing Wal-Mart's terribly low pay scale?
How about you look to better yourself through education or experience to gain some form of a skill so you are worth more than minimum wage. I've stated before it should be raised some but not to the $15 scale. Minimum wage jobs are/were never meant to be a living wage that you raise a family on. The people I know do have minimum wage jobs and raising a family, have 2-3 to make ends meet.

No. It shouldn’t be raised.
It should be abandoned entirely
