The Minimum Wage: Raise it or Keep it? The minimum wage has been a hot topic discussion item in this country for many years. It was an even more pressing issue during the stock market crash and the eventual re-build of our economy. It seems both sides of the aisle have their own opinion on the matter, and nobody is really budging on making a compromise.
