Its kind of scary for some small businesses. I mean chains like Wal-Mart are making a killing an can afford to pay. But if a small business is barely making it right now with the way the economy is going how will they get through? Its kind of a catch 22.



I agree. I am so opposed to raising the minimum wage. All it does is cause retailers to increase their prices, making the minimum wage increase all for nothing. People that make over minimum wage do not get an increase and have to pay more because of retailers making it up with increases. As far as I am concerned, there should be no minimum wage. If you are unhappy with what you are bringing home, work your butt off until you can find something that pays more.
In my opinion, it is Government taking away middle class income. The rich companies will just make middle class workers pay for it and the low income will not see there difference after paying more for services.
This is a NO win situation.

Small businesses will have to lay off workers to offset the higher wages.
Then any other expenses will just be passed on to the consumer.

Never ending BS.
