Send your emails to mcgintys mailbag. The address is in the mailbag we look to our Facebook Page where many dozens of you had comments on the president s plan to raise the minimum wage to 9 an hour. He talked about in the state of the union. Michael smith says bad idea. The minimum wage is antifree market, just like government bailouts. Government needs to get out of the way and let this nation strive to meet its potential. But jackie says, 9 just doesnt go far enough. 9 is not going to get people out of poverty. Start talking 13 or 14. And finally, the president who seems to be somewhat concerned about the poor. I know it will not eliminate poverty, but give credit where its due. And Thomas Porter sterksz higher minimum wage will not hurt Small Business. The only Small Business hurt will be the ones who are greedy and do not want to pay employees the pay they should be getting. Any Small Business that does not support 9 an hour does not care about the employees to begin with, and it is time for those employees to leave. All right, thomas, spoken like a man who has never owned a Small Business, heres the reality. Forcing companies to pay works more money can raise the cost of doing business, but if you have no minimum wage Even Companies who want to pay well cant compete with those willing to exploit their workers. The whole thing is a compromise. It is designed to limit inequality. Right now were just argue where to set the bar. My address is mailbag wusa9. Com. Thats our report.
