Strongly agree

No, most minimum wage jobs are meant to develop experience, not support a family

This perspective aligns with the right's view that minimum wage jobs are entry-level positions meant for gaining experience rather than long-term careers that support families. They argue that raising the minimum wage could reduce the availability of these jobs for young and inexperienced workers.

No, this will only cause prices to increase in a never ending cycle

The argument that raising the minimum wage would cause a cycle of price increases resonates with the right's concern about inflation and the potential negative impact on the economy. They emphasize the importance of maintaining stable prices and argue that market forces should determine wages.

Agree

No

Many on the right believe that the government should not interfere with the labor market and that businesses should have the freedom to set wages based on market conditions. They argue that keeping the federal minimum wage at its current level or allowing states to set their own standards encourages competition and economic growth.

No, and eliminate all wage standards

This view is based on the principle of minimal government intervention in the economy.

Slightly agree

Regardless, minimum wage standards should be adjusted by age group

While not a mainstream view, some on the right might support adjusting minimum wage standards by age group as a way to balance the needs of younger, less experienced workers with the economic realities of businesses. However, this approach could be seen as too interventionist by others on the right.

Very strongly disagree

Yes, and make it a living wage

The concept of a 'living wage' is strongly opposed by the right, as it typically involves significant government intervention in the labor market. They argue that such policies can lead to job losses, discourage business investment, and hurt the economy overall.

Very strongly disagree

Yes, and adjust it every year according to inflation

Adjusting the minimum wage annually according to inflation is generally opposed by the right, as they argue it could lead to a cycle of wage and price increases that harm the economy.
