The Catch 22 of The Minimum Wage Laws


If my employer thinks, based on my production as a worker, that I am only worth $5.15 per hour, but the government tells the employer he has to pay me $7.00 per hour, what do you think will happen? Many of the employers will just eliminate me from their payroll. Many will not hire me in the first place. How is that going to help me? Who will I blame? Certainly not the wonderful politicians who forced the employer to increase my pay and thus eliminate me from the workforce! In other words, the Democrats have figured out a way to get votes from the very people who are injured by their policies! Maybe the photo above this post should be of Tricky Dick Nixon instead of Teddy Kennedy.
