I heard coal mine jobs are doing well..Personally I think they should have done the minimum wage county by county, but they probably seeing data that I do not know.
Hey Henry. Let’s have some data. Please show where raising the minimum wage has led to loss of jobs. Your prejudice is your own. Let’s have some facts, please.
Job growth in the NYC region exceeds the national level. NY State has tried and in many ways succeeded in drawing companies to Upstate, the area most severely effected by the decline in manufacturing. The Buffalo area is a leader in development of recyclable energy. The Albany area has become center of nanotechnology.
un-fortunately raising min wage is a temp fix…we need to find a way to re-redistribute the wealth because this redistributing it to the .1 % hasn’t worked out very well… he he :p
Reading the corporate media would have one thinking that a great depression was going to occur in Florida over a $1 an hour raise. A few months after that raise not a peep was heard. No one could get any corporate or media person to discuss it.

It is not the minimum wage that need upping.. It is the top wage that needs lowering to “realistic”.

California has more people than water. Flight isn’t a problem.

Oregon’s bill is linked to regional economic conditions, to some degree, a better way than blanket over all economies.
I’ll settle for what Charles or David Koch consider an adequate minimum wage, for them!

Not correct. California is leading the nation in job creation from recent labor reports. California also attracts educated workers.
