Need a subminimum wage, for "kids", it will help employment, stimulate growth. Actually we need to encourage the use of "interns" more. The service sector could really benefit by the use of unpaid "interns".:dunce:

3. The U.S. minimum wage was at its highest in 1968 at $1.60 per hour. |

Adjusted for inflation it would be more than $8.70 today. And that's just adjusting for inflation; figure in productivity increases and it would be much higher. $5.15 per hour is a sick, twisted joke. :grr:
