the SAME people are on minimum wage all of the time. They're not and - if raising minimum wage eliminates entry level opportunities AND raises the price of goods and services these very same people must buy - don't you think that's harmful?

Why in Hell would anyone urge anyone to join a union? To fatten the wallets of the Union Leaders. To see our automobiles revert to the crap they were just a few years ago? To get them to contribute union dues only to see their PAC money spent ONLY on left wing candidates often over their objections.

Sorry - I don't think so.
