I'm torn on this topic, but what I think sucks is (for example--yep, I have a friend that works at walmart)... He started out at 6/hour and gets 10 cent raises here and there, been there for four years almost and these new kids coming in are hired in way above him. I personally think companies should adjust and reward loyal employees before bringing in fresh/clueless meat and paying them way more than the ones that have been there all along.

9.50 seems fair for minimum wage. Someone made a point, if you keep MW too low, then we all pay for the welfare, food visa cards (new food stamps) etc. I personally think anyone on welfare for more than 3 months that claims they can't find a job because of this or that, boo-fucking-hoo...... the government should give them jobs picking up trash at parks or whatever, but make them work for their welfare check, period! Might make them think twice about picking up dog shit in Central park and getting a job slinging hotdogs....... at least it would be an honest living.
