The safety net for working americans is raising mininum wages to 12.00 an hr. Job creation comes thru raising mininum wages. present day mininum wages are sub-standard. Gas is $3.50 a gallon mininum is $7.25. The federal mininum wages are out dated. Low income people get a raise when mininum wages are increased. there are more low income people in the U.S. working at mininum wages than Ronald Regan Era. Now is the time to raise wages. Mcdonalds, Wal-Mart, Target, and many others companies can afford to pay higher wages and the economy will get back on track. This is the only way to make the rich pay; not by taxing there net worth. Let everyone pay there fair share. raising wages will help jump start the economy. wages go up so does the order for goods and services goes up. do the math!!!
