          This is not evidence. Fact checks are supposed to be based on evidence.

          Ok, minimum wage goes up, prices go up and that increase wasn’t enough to cover the increase! Talk to those earning minimum wages.

          Minimum wage used to always go up every year. But one year, they put a stop on it. You know why? President Bush. Herman Cain froze servers' minimum wage at $2.13!
