More money in the pockets of entry-level workers sounds great, but Rachel Greszler of the conservative Heritage Foundation argues that such workers, and the economy writ large, are hurt more than helped by increases in the minimum wage.

    https://drexel.edu/hunger-free-center/research/briefs-and-reports/minimum-wage-is-not-enough/#:~:text=Though often considered the baseline,over the following 71 years.

    Though often considered the baseline of livable wages, it is important to note that even when it was first created, it did not represent a true living wage.

    So when it was created. It wasn’t a living wage. I’ll tell you another secret. Politicians say one thing and do another.
