Very wrong, most small business owners (ones who care about their employees and overall wellbeing) support an increase in minimum wages bc it actually co-insides with greater revenue. American Sustainable Business Council released scientific report that polled 500+ small business owners, 61% support a gradual min wage increase on pace with cost of living. 

Increase in wages would: Increase consumer purchasing power, increased productivity, increase employee satisfaction, decrease expensive employee turnover, give businesses a greater sense of investment in their employees, etc. Ya know most things that our current economic system doesn't quantify. When talking about profits and increase in economic growth, current economics doesn't take into account anything but profit. Time to be a little more humane.

Fed min. wage increased in 2009, but wages haven't gone up since 1969. Relative to prices over time workers earn less today in a more expensive economy.The american ppl deserve a raise
