Personally, I'm opposed to any mandated minimum wage laws.

Don't increase minimum wage. It is not supposed to be a career wage in the first place.

Good idea. Let company's force people take less wages. Good thinking.

Real thinkers around here.

Work hard, learn sk**ls, accumulate experience, earn promotion (or new job), repeat. It's really pretty simple.

Hmmmmm..... a maximum wage......

That would likely stifle competition and de-incentivize high performance. Exactly the opposite of what removing a minimum wage would do.

Oh....I can read. I think the problem is that you can't write.

Say what you mean.

The Minimum age is also the Maximum wage an employer has to pay to an employee. Think about that a little.

This whole idea is fraught with problems. However, there is no rule that the employers have to reduce the wages paid to their labor. It only prevents local political districts from raising minimum wages higher than the rest of the state.

You might note that the areas that had raised their wages have an unusually younger age skew to their populations - read as university/college towns.

I earn a heck of a lot more than minimum wage....so is my employer breaking the "Maximum Wage" law? Given your logic, the answer would be yes.

Don't be so desperate for a comeback that you make an i***t of yourself.

It's OK to be wrong. I do it regularly. It's how I learn......but only if I can admit and own my mistakes.
