  • The minimum wage has a negative affect on business in America. There are 3 reforms that must be made with the minimum wage.

    1. Make it so only people with high school education can have the right. To encourage education.

    2. Let business making under $100,000 not have to be involved to help them out.

    3. Have areas with no minimum wage for the unemployed.

  • Increases in wages will first come out of company profits and then increases in prices if needed. If a business needs a worker, they'll pay them. People seem to forget how much profit companies make for their owners.

  • Altough it seems heaven sent we ain't ready to have a mexican president !

  • no he is probably one of the smartest people on this planet, he just looks at things from a different perspective than u or me

  • minimum wage discriminates against those who arent worth the minimum wage

  • um your logic seems flawed to me

  • what if your not worth 7.25. what if some kid is only worth 4 dollars. than the employer is just taking charity. what if your worth ten an hour. now the employer only has to pay you 7.25 by law

  • ah i understand now. what is funny is that i dont support a minimum wage i just am defending nader cause he is very intelligent and very logical

  • who is not worth minimum wage?

  • Who decides "minimum wage" What if one has less earning potential than another. Who is a third party to decide. If one digs a ditch faster than another why is the later worth as much. Minimum wage is a manifasttion of government

  • anything under 10 is low enough that imo anyone is worth that

    i cant belive we complain about china yet we try to say the our people are worh 2 bucks an hr like in china

  • Why 10? Why not 11? Or 20? You are payed what your worth. If your worth more work somewhere else. Its in an employers best interest to pay you what your worth. As minimum wage increases unemployment among the youth increases. And minorities are hurt the most

  • funny here in Michigan with unemployment being high mcdonalds and the supermarkets STILL HIRE!!! even with mw being 7:40

    again NO ONE is worth 2 bucks an hr i live in america i want to be paid like a chink ill move to china

  • i trow 10 out there as a price floor u know "starting at" i give youths more credit and i know they can find a job for that much i put a dr out of business for paying mw i sent letters to all his patients with a copy of an employee pay stub (employee was ok with that) people stopped going to him he closed his business he killed himself, cheap bastard shoulda paid more

  • maybe we should get rid of overtime laws, 40 hr work week, child labor, bring in a little slavery u know true "capitalism"

  • Sure they hire but there not hiring unskilled labor. So young teens often dont get hired and dont get work experience. Minimum wage makes it illegal to hire an unskilled worker

  • supermarkets and mcdonalds DO HIRE unskilled labor, duh whats a bagger and a fry cook?

  • Some jobs may have the positions, others may not. What if the pizza place cant absorb 10 workers at 7.25 an hour. Every dollar increase at 40 hrs a week is 1600 dallars a month. If bagging grocieries is only worth 5 dollars an hour, the 2.25 difference is charity. So instead of taking a chance on a 14 year old at 5, I have to go to someone whos less a risk at 7.25. This law has lead to increased unemployment among minority youth

  • whoa whoa whoa shohadaku ron paul and ralph nader are completely different. ron paul advocates deregulation of the market and ralph nader advocates higher regulation of the market.

  • Bob Barr is ok but he stands less of a chance than Nader. People are starting to listen to what Ralph has to say, and frankly, he is the only candidate left with any stones.

  • Bob Barr 08 Maybe

  • RRalph Nader 2008.

  • If nader was legit he would be uniting with Ron Paul. United we stand

  • Way different philisophies, but both great guys and honest politicians.

  • yea, I would love to live in a country were the democrats were people like nader and the reps people like ron paul. :)

  • news flash Ron Paul Dropped out of race...
