mises.org — Excellent discussion of timely issue of the minimum wage, and its effect upon those it is purported to help. Provides a nice look into the culpability of proponents (politicians, labor leaders) and shows that we are all bound by inexorable economic laws, no matter how much we wish it were otherwise.

Excellent article in light of the "Heroic Democrats fight to raise minimum wage against evil GOP" articles we're getting. Never mind that states can raise their minimum wages above the federal minimum wage anyway! Just another little fact that's being ignored in the debate.

Who cares if raising wage floors creates unemployment? It makes us feel good!
