Why have some states passed laws to increase their minimum wage to $15 per hour?
a) They argue that workers who make only federal minimum wage live below the poverty line.
b) They argue that workers deserve a higher hourly rate so that they can have money left over after bills are paid.
c) They argue that a higher minimum wage leads to a more prosperous economy.
d) They argue that workers who make $7.25 an hour are less likely to be active members in society, since low wages can lead to depression.
