No This is not the solution. If you raise minimum waige evverything will just get more expensive en we'll be back from the start

Yes, but I think businesses should increase the minimum wage and make it a living wage; NOT the government. Minimum wage jobs are meant to develop experience and to support a family. But we must do whatever it takes to prevent inflation and skyrocketing prices.

For fast food workers, absolutely not! But depending on what job, then yes!!! Our Military should have the highest paying jobs and they definitely DO NOT!!!

If you increase minimum wage, raise the already employed the same percentage as you do minimum wage. There is no reason an entry level employee should make the same as a senior employee!

No because people who went to college worked their butts off just to get $15 and people who didn't go to school are just being handed money for not finishing school or having low skills
