Liberals always favor raising the Minimum Wage, as if that solves anything. The problem with that idea is that, while it may make a difference for the minimum wage earners, the effect is only temporary, and employers who might otherwise be inclined to hire more workers will hire the fewest possible and demand higher productivity. It starts to make better sense to go to a cash labor bargain, where the worker gets the full rate offered, the government gets nothing, and no records are kept--a better deal for both the employer and employee.

Liberals always have problems with market based pricing of everything - thinking their opinion is more valid than that of the people.

As to the minimum wage being lower than most folks would like, I'd suggest one look to the law of supply and demand. Our public education system, particularly those in urban settings, are putting a very significant portion of their students in the street with very limited sk**ls. Meanwhile, suggesting that we have a shortage of unsk**led and uneducated people, we are importing millions more.

In other words, we have a glut of unsk**led uneducated laborers competing for too few jobs - and all caused by liberal policies in education and immigration.
