I think the minimum wage should be increased. 7.25 is too low. However, people should not be working at McDonalds for years either.
Why do you think unemployment should be increased?

While I truly do sympathize with people who are trying to make ends meet, some work simply isn’t worth more than 5 bucks an hour. In a perfect world, people wouldn’t take the work unless it was worth their while, and the business would be forced by market forces to adjust their pay system accordingly. Obviously this isn’t a perfect world and that isn’t going to happen, but the solution still isn’t for the government to mandate that people must be paid 15 dollars an hour to flip burgers.
I think the minimum wage should be abolished. Where does the Constitution grant Congress the authority to mandate a minimum wage?
Working at McDonalds for years is NOT a problem if you move up in the ranks, you have the opportunity to work hard and become the general manager!!!
all that minimum wages do is wipe out what ever wage increase a low wage employee gets if they stay with the same employer. this happens because within 6 months rent goes up, grocery goes up. the real reason that the democratic party supports minimum wage increases is so that they ac actually have people paying more taxes with there new increase of income that buys less stuff. another thing that increasing minimum wage does is make it so those on fixed income have less buying power because programs like social security tend not to increase as fast unless there is intervention buy the federal government. corporations actually love this because the increase in minimum wage actually hits startups that might be competition harder then the corporation.
