Federal minimum wage $10.10 without inflation
Now before you say I make over $10.10 an hour and this has no effect on me. THINK about everyone who does not? Now a lot of people think this is a problem because if minimum wage goes up so will cost of living every day item. When that is not the fact, if corporations would simply take the cut at the top of the ladder it will work then balance back out. Here for example: you now get paid $10.10 an hour you go out to eat, pay overdue bills, "spend it" stimulating the economy and feeding this money lost back up the ladder. This pay raise is important for a couple of reasons most can’t afford to live and are forced to apply for welfare. 19 states plus DC have already started by raising their minimum wage higher than the federal standard.
