No one is forcing anyone to take those minimum wage jobs. Which begs the question of why there's even a minimum wage in the first place. I envision a truly great America where the marketplace sets the wage -- not the government. Watch our blessed country come roaring back to its rightful place as the dominant economic force if the socialist minimum wage is abolished!
Of course, right to work ought to be the law everywhere just as it is in Texas and other states where freedom and liberty are cherished.

Watch our blessed country come roaring back to its rightful place as the dominant economic force if the socialist minimum wage is abolished!It may come as a real shock to you but employers generally speaking do not love to share their wealth with their employees...
Couple that with the infusion of millions of illegal Mexicans willing to work, cheap, and our manufacturing base having left for China, there will be no dominant economic force in our near future...
What are small businesses going to sell to employees who make 2 bucks an hour???
