  • ATTENTION EVERYONE WHO IS SAYING THAT THIS IS STUPID BECAUSE IT WOULD RUIN OUR JOB MARKET. Toronto is in Canada. That is all :)

  • Now, that's real grassroot activism, not dumbass tea baggers.

  • What a great idea. Unemployments not going to go up at all

  • Doctors and nurses are in high demand in America so prices are higher for their skills. Someone who has no special skill is not in high demand and if the market is saturated with excess labor pay rates will be lower. But if you increase the minimum wage to a price small or big business can't afford to pay, jobs will vanish and you will have high unemployment.

    Just because someone thinks they deserve a higher wages doesn't make it practicable.

  • WHy not raise it to $100/hr? Why stop at $10?

  • Raising the minimum wage is bad for small business because most small businesses are running off of payrole to payrole and when they are forced to pay more they will have to make the diference by ether leting go of there workers and cutting back hours of others or rasing the price of there products and or service.

  • there are plenty people to clean toilets.

    PLENTY

    'cause it;s easy

  • How can you accept service from all these workers knowing they get paid so little. Doctors, nurses are valued in hospitals but let me tell you.... nobody gets well in a hospital if somebody isnot maintaing hospital hygeine. Enery time you use a public washroom, or stay in a hotel, somebody cleaned the toilets. Imagine using places that were not cleaned. So..... WHATS IT WORTH to you????

  • Actually thats the anti-free market, anti-business, anti-work, pro-extreme left wing liberal socialist-communist; point of view.

  • Any economist knows that minimum wage doesn't help anybody and it doesn't matter how high it goes. Raising minimum wage simply contributes inflation, soring prices and elimination of jobs .
