It's the same logic.

Why stop at $11?

THis is such a lame argument

"Why not make the minimum wage $100"

Well duh frick stick because $100 an hour would make no more sense than the current $8.25 does.

My dad owns a small business in Arkansas , exactly zero of his 24 emmployees make less than $11 an hour anyway. As the link another person posted shows, VERY few adult workers are making minimum wage, which meanasraising minimum wage isn't going to cause very many employees to fire workers, cut hours, most employers won't even notice the increase because it won't even affect them.

But for the relatively few cheap asses out there who are not paying a reasonable wage, yes they will have to increase wages.

I don't have much sympathy for those people.
