Think of it like this: You hire people to do cleanup work, and people will work for peanuts because it's 'a good cause'.

At least that's part of it, I assume.

And Halliburton can make a killing off Katrina just like they are in Iraq.

I don't get it. You appear to be stating that you agree with abolishing the minimum wage, but instead of putting up any solid arguments to support it, you're just sniping with snide comments. Put up or shut up? I don't even have an opinion on this one but it looks like you are uncomfortable with yours.

In Canada the minimum wage is $7.45
they raized it a year ago. And there is talk or raizing it again.

I belive it's different in each province. Cause it's alot lower here.

doesn't raising the minimum wage just mean that more people will be out of a job?

minimum wage is a great idea,suspending it is even better,wish they would bring this idea to australia,would mean i could employ more ppl and pay them next to nothing.
win, win.
get more ppl off the dole, and my profit margin goes up

I didn't realize this was a serious discussion.
