I need information about raising the minimum wage

8. And by the very nature that is an across the board minimum wage, all the lower paid workers,

the store clerks, the kmart workers, the McDonalds workers, the guys at the shoe store are all making and taking home more money. Sure that burger might cost a little bit more in labor, but they are selling more because more people have a little of money to buy it. And sure the store owner might take a little hit, but they make it back because the store has more sells.

It has always worked that way. When the person on the bottom has more money to spend the whole regions economy gains from it. That is why (in my opinion) when Clinton did his welfare reform and welfare to work programs, the local economies went down the tubes. The people at the bottom no longer had any money even when working 2 and 3 jobs.
