Well here in the real world - I'm here to tell you that as a small business owner MMMMMM's got it right if the minimum wage is raised I'll just have to put a few hours of overtime in and not hire a summer student.

The minumum wage has not been raised for several years. In real dollars, it is worth a lot less than at any point in recent history. Should it never be raised? If inflation turns 6 bucks an hour into the equivelant of 4 bucks an hour, isn't the minimum wage being lowered every year? (lowered in terms of its expense to the business owner)
