what the United States would look like with a fifteen dollar minimum wage
Imagine what the United States would look like with a fifteen dollar minimum wage. You don’t even have to, just take one look at New York City today with homeless people scattered up and down the streets. Every day, the argument of raising the federal minimum wage comes up in conversation whether it’s grandparents arguing with their grandchildren on holidays or “anchormen” arguing their side of it on opinion-based news. It’s easy to see that in the near future, many people will have a hard time finding a job because raising minimum wage would hurt them more than it would help them. This is because inflation would skyrocket, small businesses would fail, and the unemployment rate would escalate, among other serious problems.
