in Denmark the min. wage = 1 hours work, aprox. 20$

20$ times 5 = 100DKK

i forgot to mention, this is when you're 18 years old.

under 18, then the wage is about 10$

That is correct, but mimimum wage is a good topic. We should discuss how it the recent raising of minimum wage is rediculous and how it's retarded to have it in the first place. Now one of you hippies disagree with me and we'll get this party started.

There should be a national minimum wage that can easily be controlled by the federal government to help combat unemployment.

^There should be no minimum wage at all to combat unemployment. With minimum wage, people who aren't worth minimum wage won't get hired.

Do you think Laissez Faire can really work?

I mean the constant threat of a communist revolution is enough.

Yeah, if anything national minimum wage should be raised.

In Alaska I believe that the state minimum wage is around 8.50. The national is what? 5.50?

Minimum wage is shit and is based on false numbers that represent how much you need to survive which is bullshit.

Look at the show 30 days, and how 2 people working fulltime on minimum wage try and live.

Very eye opening. I don't see how you can suggest banishing minimum wage when you know that big business isn't going to hold fair pricing for jobs.

With raising minimum wage, they also raise the cost of living, eating, pleasure, and everything else. So in a way we're at the same place we started.... just with bigger numbers for the same shit.

Raising minimum wage does not raise the standard of living.

I am sorry, but just because the minimum wage increases doesn't mean that everything is going to inflate.

There's a poster hanging up in the office where I work out of. It explains all you need to know about minumum wage (as of 1995).

For example, certain Agricultural jobs can pay as little as 1.83 an hour!
