if minimum wage goes upin our income stays the same will be in more runs than you’ll ever knowwill all of following was in the financial cracks in the United States orplaces that depend upon financial aidwhat does this mean comparing dollar for dollar for someone working and someone not workingperson working or probably on a car person working probably will be putting you up in a shedeating cobia a thing to you might be eating bologna while he is eating steakso don’t let this happen contact your appointed officials and let them know that you want your income raised as well
Minimum wage? Don’t even know what that is anymore been on SSDI for so long, in the last 5 years I’ve only gotten a $20 a month increase. Doesn’t even make a dent in what the cost of food is now. I don’t even recall the last time I have eaten a steak.
If minimum wage goes up the cost of living goes up which will only cause a decline in middle class which won’t help at all!
I have often wondered if they give us a check to keep the economy just floatingso I can get away with their dirty work
The thing that is happening here… Seattle is set to adopt the higher minimum wage… the way it’s playing out… small business and mom and pop shops… are firing all their workers and moving their business far out of the city. They can’t afford to pay the workers 15.00 an hour when as a mom and pop business… they themselves don’t even make that much.
So that is businesses running from the city as fast as they can and taking their jobs with them. More and more people are becoming unemployed and more and more small businesses are leaving.
yeah when I heard about this that is what I imagined happening…
Minimum wage here is still $7.25 an hour…try living on that…it was $5.25 when I got my first job though. I’ve never even been paid $15.00 an hour…most I ever got was like 13.75 an hour but that was years ago. I seriously don’t know how people manage to get by…the solution we are being told is to go to college…but then for me this would be like slamming my head against a brick wall for two to four years. I’m certainly not doing that.
That is horrible! If our government would learn how to spend money wisely and stop making small businessesdrown, we wwouldn’t have this mess!
