Central Premise
Federal Reserve System bloggers, Jan 30, 2014
Yesterday, someone sent me a link to Business for a Fair Minimum Wage. I like counterintuitive stories of all sorts, and Business for a Fair Minimum Wage seemed to fit the category. ...
The statement from Business for a Fair Minimum Wage has some of the same themes:
“As business owners and executives, we support raising the federal minimum wage to strengthen our economy. …
“Raising the minimum wage makes good business sense. …
“A recent national poll shows that 67 percent of small business owners support increasing the federal minimum wage …
“We support gradually raising the federal minimum wage over three years to at least $10.10 an hour, and then adjusting it annually for inflation to keep up with the cost of living.”
