$9 minimum wage? Hey, try $10
That's what Illinois Gov Quinn is propposing, and I hope it passes.

What would be the effect on unemployment?
Given that increasing the cost of labor would be expected to drive down the demand. -
Re: $9 minimum wage? Hey, try $10
It's $10.15 here. When it went up significantly over the last couple of years the "business community" screemed blue murder, especially the food service businesses. I don't think it ended up hurting them in the end.Stay calm, be brave....wait for the signs. Possibly precariously prevaricating.

$10,66 here, apparently $10,56 (if you calculate inflation) in the past.
I believe there is a bandwith in which people earn enough to contribute to the economy, yet not enough to pay an accountant good enough to squeeze every last penny that might be paid to the public onto an offshore account.
The more people you have within that band, the better it is for your country.If at first you fail, you need to expand your sample size.Comment

So if I am not wealthy or smug, am I allowed to disagree, or is this thread only for the wealthy/smug and those that agree with you? Or are you trying to say that if I disagree, I am a de facto wealthy and smug person?.* _______________________________________ )
