Minimum Wage Hike
by
Nona Nixon
What is all the "hype" about a raise in the "minimum wage?" Congress adds a few more cents onto the "minimum wage" and people literally jump up and down for joy, why is this? Currently the "minimum wage" within New York State alone is $7.

by
Daniel Hawes
Just like affirmative action and the welfare system, the liberals have distorted the entire premise of the minimum wage beyond recognition. Many are misinformed of the fact that the minimum wage is actually a deterrent to a healthy economy and small business growth.

Minimum Wage Laws Information

Patrick Hanan
The United States first established a minimum wage in 1938. Since then, the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA), has raised the rate of minimum wage to $7.25. On top of that, many individual states have legislated amounts that are higher than the national standard for minimum wage.

Minimum Wage Increases Decrease Hiring and Productivity
by
Scott Spiegel
In his State of the Union Address last week, President Obama called for yet greater federal interference in the economy via a $1.75 per hour minimum wage hike, from $7.25 to $9.00, with additional increases tagged to inflation. New York Times columnist Paul Krugman opined that, "surprisingly," increasing the minimum wage may be good policy: "Why 'surprisingly'? Well, Economics 101 tells us to be very cautious about attempts to legislate market outcomes." No, I didn't make up that disclaimer; that's just Krugman displaying a little false modesty. Don't worry-he still comes out all in favor of the wage increase.

by
Lindsey Williams
Here we go again on the minimum wage carousel. Around and around it goes. Where it stops, nobody knows. Perhaps the most stupid law ever invented by the U.S. Congress - one-upped by a few states including Florida - is headed for a soul-searching séance.

What is the New Minimum Wage - Living Wage Vs Minimum Wage
by
Sharon L. Green
The recent minimum wage increase, for a 40 hour work week amounts to less than $100 monthly. The 2008 increase will up the average minimum wage worker's income a little more than $200.00 monthly, and 2009 will raise their monthly income just over $300. When the increases are totally effective, the minimum wage worker will earn about $3300 more per year, for a consistent 40 hour work week, than they do now.
