You are wrong about raising minimum wage solving the problem of our wages going down. Higher minimum wage means less consumer buyer. Higher employee costs (wages) means higher product cost and ultimately price to the consumer. Minimum wage should not go up. People need to train for better jobs - which I am doing currently.
