I don't believe it will work.. no, it cause undue stress on small businesses- people actually CHOOSE to work at and are realistic it's for pocket money usually part time- like I help my friend who has a vintage boutique.. sometimes she passes me a couple hundred, sometimes we just have lunch.. it's pocket money, I understand she has to make her store rent and utilities- I mostly just volunteer. We're friends and neighbors. Big Box stores like wallymart can do better than $12 hr though. We all agree. And they should.

yes, but here in CO min wage is 12.50. most of the country is more. I recommend you take an economics class as I'm currently in one one have written 6 page papers and made 20 page power points as to why minimum wafe requirements don't work. regretting not going for a degree in economics lol going to be an elementary educator
