80% of the jobs created were low wage.

That could have been avoided if the GOP grew a brain and supported increasing the minimum wage.

That's interesting. Do you believe it is possible to eliminate low wage jobs if we just increase the minimum wage enough?

Then the jobs wouldn't be low wage anymore Sbane. Wink

Lower wage sure, but people wouldn't live in dire poverty as a cause of it.

Low wage is all relative, isn't it? I do agree with your other point though.
