I'm sure wages would be a lot higher for everybody if employer's
weren't limited to paying only the minimum wage. I assume you support
the "guest worker" program? There has to be an almost unlimited demand
for people desperate enough to work for $2-3 an hour. Should we condone
paying people so little that they have no realistic alternative to
subsist except public assistance and/or crime, just to allow the law of
"supply and demand" to operate? If you hate the minimum wage, you've
gotta be thrilled with illegal immigration.
