This has been one of my peeves. All minimum wage increase does is temporarily help out the lowest wage earners. The far larger group of people who make a little more than minimum, nine or ten bucks an hour, end up getting screwed. Everytime there is a minimum wage increase, there is, within a few months, an increase in consumer prices, and the the people who did not get a raise see their purchasing power lessened.
