Is raising minimum wage nationwide a horrible idea?

everyone is so entitled now.

they feel as if people/the government owe them something.

No one owes them anything, some people have it rougher than others. well toughen up. life isnt fair. not everyone is as fortunate as others.

so work hard, and move up in life without feeling intitled to a standard of living you think you deserve.

I hear ya, no need to tell me twice.

I just turned 30, but be sure that I have the proper things put in place to ensure if god forbid something happened to me, my family would get enough to at least pay off the house.

My fiance makes good money now ($32/hour) but she gets paid by NY state medicaid, so not of it is taxed* and she has no benefits. All of it rides on me.

 

*none of it is taxed: meaning we owe on all of it when we do our taxes the following year.
