Everyone Must Have A Shot At The American Dream.

On Balance, I Am A Supporter Of The Minimum Wage Going Up. We've Got To Be Very Careful What We Wish For Because Some Employers - And There Could Be A Lot Of Them - Will Be Scared Away From Hiring New People Or Creating Incremental Hours For Part-time People As A Result Of That Wage Going Up.
