Renewing our Promise to Workers Act of 2014

[President Tyrion]

If we want to revisit the minimum wage, perhaps we shouldn't throw out the rest of the Act, too.

Furthermore, I will ABSOLUTELY not accept a drop in the minimum wage without an increase in basic income.

Thought you've been a long time supporter of the abolition in the Minimum Wage. =/ ?

The minimum wage is an economic inefficiency, but a necessary one so long as workers aren't receiving enough money some other way, simply put.

So I would support dropping the minimum wage if I would be convinced that workers could still maintain a livelihood.

Hey, TNF, do you have any data on that 16 hrs/wk number? I'm trying to understand the methodology here.

It's very tough to find much quantitative data on the subject, which is very disappointing to me. Most news sources seem to be printing editorials describing a desire to shorten the work week, but that's not much more than one man or woman's opinion, of course.
