You seem to forget that each and everytime that the minimum wage has been increased, so have PRICES. You complain about $3 a gallon for gas, but under your logic gas would increase to $4 a gallon. So lets raise the minimium wage, and see unemployment increase, and watch as there are less and less jobs available for young unskilled persons.

That was probably one of the best arguments against capitalism I have heard in a while. --- help me Instant Runoff Voting, you're my only hope --- "There is no such thing as laziness. Laziness is only lack of incentive." Norman Reider, MD
