quote [ Minimum wage hikes in six cities: big impact on pay, none on jobs ]
The minimum wage in the United States is set by US labor law and a range of state and local laws. Employers generally have to pay workers the highest minimum wage prescribed by federal, state, and local law. Since July 24, 2009, the federal government has mandated a nationwide minimum wage of $7.25 per hour.

This is one area where I agree with most of you on. There's absolutely zero excuse as to why the federal minimum wage can't be at the very least ten dollars an hour.
The larger issue is still inflation though.

It has pulled people out of poverty, raised tax income for cities states and the federal government and increased local business where ever it has been done
