We've been listening all year to politicians telling us raising the minimum wage will help combat poverty, yet there is no evidence to suggest that it actually will. In fact, the evidence suggests real poor people are harmed by government price-fixing of wages.
Apparently that is enough to convince Senator Mitch McConnell to go ahead with the plan to raise the minimum wage anyway.
How are we ever going to improve the direction of our nation if we continue to give in on feel-good, sound-good nonsense like this?
