Louisville mayor Greg Fischer supports raising the minimum wage, but only to $8.75 an hour, even though the Louisville Metro Council labor and economic development committee voted in favor of raising the minimum wage to $10.10 on by 2017. $8.75 an hour? $10.10 an hour? Who can live on that? Why not $18.75 an hour or $20.10 an hour? What a bunch of pikers!
All arguments for having a minimum wage in the first place are emotional and political. My two latest articles against the minimum wage are here and here.
