Upah minimum persekutuan adalah upah terendah di mana majikan boleh membayar pekerja mereka. Sejak 24 Julai 2009 gaji minimum persekutuan AS ditetapkan pada $ 7.25 sejam. Pada 2014 Presiden Obama mencadangkan menaikkan gaji minimum persekutuan kepada $ 10.10 dan mengikatnya kepada indeks inflasi. Upah minimum persekutuan dikenakan kepada semua pekerja persekutuan termasuk mereka yang bekerja di pangkalan tentera, taman negara dan veteran yang bekerja di rumah kejururawatan.

only if those receiving the new wage understand the consequences of paying for their own insurance and other benefits now paid for by employers...including their half of social security as do all self employed workers.
@2JMLJVV3 tahun3Y
I support a sliding minimum wage based on location or profession.
@2JMLBV73 tahun3Y
Maybe...but this is NOT the solution, but this may help for the short term...and I would suggest that the increase targeted to specific industry's and firm of a size exceeding a certain threshold
@2JM4WJJ3 tahun3Y
Leave it up to the business world. Fair companies will get good workers. Get the government out of our lives.
@2JLGNVC3 tahun3Y
No. The government should step out of price controls/subsidies and allow the economy to be an economy truly based in capitalism.
@2JL6ZRV3 tahun3Y
The system is rigged anyway, arguing over these listed points is only keeping the middle class down.
@2JL2RFB3 tahun3Y
NO, doing that will certainly kill a lot of businesses.
Those jobs are never meant to be homestead supporting jobs. We don't need immigrants coming in to fill these type of jobs either. We do however need to be able to get public transportation to where minimum wage workers can get to those jobs that can not afford cars with high property taxes and high cost insurance. (Ever notice how many of these insurance companies have high dollar television ads? I'm fed up with Geckos and Flo, aren't you?) $4.00 a gallon for gas didn't help either.
@2JKYYLY3 tahun3Y
yes, and make it dependent on living situation (age, number of dependents, rent costs etc.)
@2JKYWNC3 tahun3Y
stop the mass importation of foreign workers, this will raise the wages at the bottom
@2JKYS7N3 tahun3Y
No but corporations with more than 10% of their workforce eligible for government assistance should pay a tax penalty
@2JKXPKH3 tahun3Y
minimum wage is not meant to be a living wage...it provides entry level opportunities that would not otherwise exist.
@2JKWXTL3 tahun3Y
We should adjust and raise the minimum wage but we should also address that even starting salaries have not risen with inflation over the last 20 years.
@2JKVP6L3 tahun3Y
Yes, and maybe there would be a way to offer certificate programs or other higher education to those who are interested, using some of the added income tax to help subsidize them.
@2JKQRV63 tahun3Y
Society has an obligation to support each person to live a life worthy of living as defined by each such person
@2JKMXPQ3 tahun3Y
Living wage for people over a certain age. Businesses would not be able to fire people though as they age just for getting older.
Leave the minimum wage alone, but require companies to limit outsourcing, and to produce within the U.S.
@2JKBM7F3 tahun3Y
Yes. While this is a short term solution to a problem that is much more systemic. Modern economics had reached a stalemate with technology and the need for scarcity has become nothing more than ploy to continue to consolidate power
@2JK9WSH3 tahun3Y
money should be directed to job training and creating better jobs
@heinrich3 tahun3Y
Yes, but W Buffet recently made a very good point that adjusting income tax credits could have a more powerful and positive impact
@2JK7PTZ3 tahun3Y
Let free market handle the payment range but have a set standard to ensure safety
@2JJX8VF3 tahun3Y
Replace minimum wage and welfare benefits with a Guaranteed Basic Income for all Americans.
@2JJN3673 tahun3Y
Yes, and place caps on price increases relative to the wage increase
@2JJMBWHRepublikan3 tahun3Y
The minimum wage should have a C.O.L.A. built into it and that would solve the problem. The democrats use it constantly as a hammer at election time then never do anything about it anyway.
@2JJJB7B3 tahun3Y
Yes and eatablish a maximum wage as well.
First get our currency back on the Gold Standard to secure inflation, than set a minimum wage according to the value of gold.
@NNF34W3 tahun3Y
Minimum wage is not relevant to anything. You are worth what you bring to the workplace. If I choose to have a starting wage of $2.50 per hour and no one applies I will have to raise the wage until I get to a number where I have sufficient applicants to fill the openings. Minimum wage jobs are entry level, they are not now or ever have been intended to support a family on. They are intended for youth as a learning foundation of what is needed regarding job skills, attitude, commitments, work ethic etc. to move to the levels above. Case in point - If I owned a McDonalds franchise I would pay… Baca lebih lanjut

There should be two minimum wage levels set, one for smaller independent businesses and for multinational businesses. Smaller businesses can pay the present amount (ex. $8.00) or raise a new floor level to ($9.00). On the other hand, multinational businesses and companies would have to pay at least, for example $9.50 or $10.00.
@NJDZZ93 tahun3Y
The issue is the maximum wage, not the minimum. Companies need to distribute profit not only to shareholders, but to employees in the form of increased wages.
@M34PRX3 tahun3Y
Before we talk about raising the minimum wage, taxes for the job providers must be lowered significantly (both on the state and federal levels)and all unnecessary regulations should be eliminated. If that is done, more jobs will be created because the more money the job providers have, the more jobs they can create, the better able existing businesses will be to expand, more businesses can be more easily established thus bringing in more jobs and opportunities; producing a more competitive environment which would provided businesses and corporations to offer better services, and a greater… Baca lebih lanjut

Yes, because we have people starving on the streets because they don't get paid enough.
