Seven Big Lies Obama Told In His State Of The Union Speech
*** begin quote ***
2) Raising minimum wage will help families
Obama sayeth, “[We] have a bill to fix that by lifting the minimum wage to $10.10… This will help families. It will give businesses customers with more money to spend… So join the rest of the country. Say yes. Give America a raise.”
It’s not hard to believe that Obama, who has never run a business, doesn’t understand that artificially forcing a business to pay someone more than their wage is worth will put more people out of the labor market. Making job creation more expensive leads to fewer jobs.

I’m sorry that I believe that the “minimum wage” is essentially a tax on the poor and “middle class”. As, if there was a difference.
