        @USDOL you do realize if wages go up, goods & services rise to cover the wage increase.

        @USDOL You are assuming the country wants people to be able through honest work to pay for housing, food, and education. #DreamingofBetter

        @USDOL this post demonstrates a complete lack of understanding of how economies work. Disappointed that this would come from US Gov't.

        @USDOL great idea if we all made just minimum wage. The issue is the "average wage" of US workers. That is less than it was 6 years ago.
