Cost to the customer will rise. Most of the previous wage increase have been passed onto the consumer and impact those on fixed income the most. Taxes will be raised to pay for employee benefits etc.

And what will the price of a loaf of bread be? Didn`t the last raise teach you anything. This really hurts people on fixed income. If you are worth it your boss will give you a raise.

Minimum wage was never supposed to be a career, was a way to get started into the workforce.

Raising the minimum wage to$15.00 will cause higher unemployment and add to inflation.
