Should the government raise the national minimum wage?
The federal minimum wage is the lowest wage at which employers may pay their employees. Since July 24, 2009 the U.S. federal minimum wage has been set at $7.25 per hour. In 2014 President Obama proposed raising the federal minimum wage to $10.10 and tying it to an inflation index. The federal minimum wage applies to all federal employees including those who work on military bases, national parks and veterans working in nursing homes.

No, minimum wage should be not under control of goverment but under control of trade unions. Trade unions should establish minimum wage by deliberation with enterprises and goverment.
@9FWKXKV8mos8MO
The minimum wage should only increase the minimum wage when it's appropriate to do so. Certain fiscal policies should be put in place in order any action which is taken should not result in any harm to the health of the nations economy.
@9BMHRZ81yr1Y
Cut all taxes on the minimum wage
@984GWG32yrs2Y
The minimum wage should be determined per age, experience, cost-of-living, sector, inflation, average pay and so on providing guideline wages. The actual minimum wage shouldn't be used for anybody except freshly out of school people with no experience in lowest-income sector in lowest cost-of-living part of country.
@8XPD4PT3yrs3Y
No, minimum wages should be based on the local cost of living.
@8WMJBHS3yrs3Y
