[/quote] Adjusted for inflation from 1960 til now minimum wage should be $16/hr. So what was good for teenagers in 1960 is good as a minimum wage today. So yes you are correct. But it doesn't change a thing. I seem to see countries that are raising their wages have higher growth. Australia, Canada, China. [b]And countries that have stagnant wages having stagnant growth. United States, United Kingdom, Germany And countries that have shrinking wages in recession. Portugal, Spain, Greece. Any way you slice it. I'm right.[/b] [/quote] :bump: [/quote]
