        @USDOL that's just a start: in reality it should be $19.30/hr.

        @USDOL more people will loose their jobs because employers will keep their expenses at current levels and not be dictated to my the Fed #DUH

        @USDOL No offense, guys, but this ad makes no sense. OF COURSE $7.25 buys less today than it did in 1950. Pull this ad; it's embarrassing.

        @USDOL $7.25 was worth about $68 what an asinine thing to say, the minimum wage wasn't at $7.25 however, in 1950 you were lucky to get .50¢
