Fifteen dollars an hour is good for the Economy

The Big Picture: 10 Ideas To Save The Economy by former Labor Secretary Robert Reich and MoveOn.org

This short video explains why fifteen dollars an hour for minimum wage is good for the American Econonmy. Watch this it's less than three minutes long and it makes sense.



What I find funny is no one I have seen on television has ever been able to show when raising the minimum wage has ever hurt local or national economies. You would think they would take any example and try to push it to make their point, no matter how flimsy it would be.
