Should the government raise the federal minimum wage?
No, most minimum wage jobs are meant to develop experience, not support a family
We need people to work the minimum wage jobs, if we only have the young and/or inexperienced then a lot of consumer goods like fast food would vastly decrease in quality. If we can't have those with families working minimum wage then we would be sacrificing quality for cost-efficiency.

While it's important to consider the impact of minimum wage policies on workforce composition, it's also crucial to address concerns about income sufficiency for all workers, including those with families. Striking a balance between fair wages and maintaining product quality is a complex challenge that requires thoughtful policy solutions.
