I dont know. It kinda pisses me off that if you work at McDonald's, youre gonna earn 15/hour for doing little work. There are people that are constantly exhausted from doing manual labor for 12/hour.

Kansas:

15$ did not help the economy, it destroyed small businesses and raised prices on everything

Edit: forget this city

There are places that its in order already? Also, it was pretty clear that the mom and pop stores would go down, but I dont think its a big deal.

I could see it possibly applied to small businesses that don't see lots of traffic normally, but in the grand scheme of things a raise of minimum wage should do nearly next to nothing. If there is any inflation of money because of it, wouldn't it be negligible compared to the "natural" inflation money goes through anyways?

Hell, it makes more sense to me at least that an increase of wages would result in lower inflation, because that would result in more people trying to spend it, which is great. If people spend money instead of hoarding it, shouldn't its value increase?
