Is raising the minimum wage a sneaky way to also raise the tax on capital gains?

12. Why, exactly, is it comon sense?

For as long as I can remember the claim has been made that raising the minimum wage ALWAYS costs jobs. The reality is, when actually looked at properly, a rise in the minimum wage has little or no effect on number of jobs.

So to say that in your opinion capital gains is one of the major reasons people are poor has almost no basis in reality. Please offer actual proof.

A crappy minimum wage is certainly a factor. I have worked for minimum wage more than once in my life, and know how hard it is to survive on that amount. But to connect it firmly to capital gains needs a bit more demonstration.
