Is our minimum wage too high in your view?

[donnashuggy]

and why?

I thought the rich were getting richer and poor were getting poorer, is it the rich that think the minimum wage is too high?

Unless consumer prices reflect those of America, canada etc then the minimum wage should stay (or get higher). Most businesses  would want citizens with at least some disposable income.

The disparity seems to have grown exponentially in the last 20 years. My opinion is no,the minimum wage is too low if anything.
