Increasing the minimum wage actually increases the unemployment rate, espiecally amongst young people. It also raises the costs of pretty much all goods (as the increased wages raise the input costs), so the cost of living increases.
In many ways raising the minimum wage actually makes society worse off. |

Indeed. Socialists are very similar to young children. |

Total garbage. Prove your assertion with facts. When the minmum wage increased under Clinton we heard the same nonsense but in fact the economy actually improved. |

I don't like a Federal minimum wage at all, but frankly, if a state wants a minimum wage, let them have it. After all, democracy is giving the people what they want, and giving it to them good and hard. |

Young children love magical solutions and superheros to solve their problems and protect them from the terrors of real life. They look for mommy, daddy, Superman or Harry Potter to save them from reality.
Many individuals never grow up and continue to look for magical solutions, superheros or a mommy or daddy to protect them and solve their problems in adulthood. They become socialists. They live in an ignorant fantasy world and vote for socialistic big government to take care of them and protect them.
Socialists ardently believe in minimum wages laws, national health care, social security and anything else the evil fascist socialist politicians promise will provide magical solutions to their problems. They believe for the same reasons children believe in their fantasy worlds.
Unfortuantely, the outcome of such belief is disaster. Socialism always fails, but the psychological inability of socialistic adults to face this fact leaves their minds numb to reality. They follow as in a lemming like parade into the sea in a fit of mutual addlepated destruction. |

Laws are written and enforced for protection.
And concerning "laws" thank you capitalism that took so long to outlaw child labor. In fact, when the US Supreme Court struck down the law forbidding it even William Jennings Bryan stated....."it was a victory for capitalism whose greed has coined the blood of little children into larger dividends". |
