I think we'll know more about the minimum wage effects after the end of the year so we can compare this year to previous years.  It might even take a few years to see the effects.  I'm interested to see.

One of the things I fear the effects of making it more expensive for small businesses to start up and also operate.  It will make it even harder for them to compete with big corporations who can absorb the wage costs easier, and then big corps will have even more of a stranglehold on the economy.

How interesting to stumble on this post and find that you're opposed to a minimum wage too. Have you changed your mind since you wrote that?

Why is it that you're opposed to a minimum wage? Isn't it reasonable to say that any business that can't pay a decent minimum wage isn't a viable business?
