Re: $15 minimum wage rejected by Louisiana House committee

Ryan Jones works a job that is not worth 15 dollars an hour. Get a better job. Can't find one? You can thank the very policies that you want to push.

Minimum wage eliminates many opportunities to pay employees what they are worth, because WORTHLESS employees are assured more money than they actually deserve. So you either get a building full of over paid and UNDER paid employees (not a healthy mix), or you give your good employees their raises, and go with a short staff (also not healthy).

Hard to get an entry level job when businesses don't want to pay $7.25 an hour to someone with no experience. A 15 dollar minimum wage would ENSURE that more people lose jobs.

If I had a nickel for every time I heard that, the NFL would fine and suspend me.
