The Minimum Wage



The 109th Congress should:
  • Abolish minimum wage laws.

The Bible says "The laborer is worthy of his hire." But

Minimum wage laws force businesses to be charitable. Businesses cannot be charitable if they go out of business. A business will go out of business if forced to pay $8.00 an hour to someone who only produces $3.00 worth of goods and services. Instead of getting a job, experience, skills, discipline, a recommendation, and a future, minimum wage laws force the unskilled into perpetual unemployment, poverty and welfare dependence.
