What raising the minimum wage will do, is take a handful of coins out of the overflowing coffers of corporate America, and put them in the hands of the workers.

That's the only reason why the Repiggies hate it.

Well in the REAL world, and most jobs I have had, it has NOT Happened that way every time Min wage was raised...

Does that mean ALL Companies, NOPE.

Keep Dreaming, we have a Contract coming up with a Big Company UPS. Let's see what they do..

Oh I see. You live in the "real" world.

I'm not suggesting that everybody gets an automatic raise when the minimum wage goes up (with the exception of those actually earning the minimum wage, of course), but that when the floor is raised, the floors above eventually get bumped higher.

That's a great point. The GOP HATES "social programs." But they don't want anybody who accesses those programs to make more money, either. It's kind of like the religious anti-abortion nuts - they want to ban abortion, but they don't support sex education or contraception, either.

They'll give you all sorts of high-minded reasons why they don't want the minimum wage raised. The bottom line, though, is they don't fucking care. That's a pretty ugly thing to admit, and "I don't give a fuck about anyone but myself" is a poor argument, so they'll lecture you on "equilibrium" or give sky-will-fall predictions of inflationary doom if the poor bastards working at WalMart make a few more bucks an hour. If you're lucky, they'll spare you the self-aggrandizing stories about how everything they have is the result of their hard work alone. In the end, it's the old "I got mine, screw you" mindset.

If you need to "assume" that after reading this thread, you should be living in a group home.
