Minimum Wage Myths Debunked
-->
by Mark Adams
Check out Think Progress' counter argument to the same old tired propaganda against raising the minimum wage regurgitated by Ohio's right wingers.
Since we can't count on Congress to raise the minimum wage, progressive Democrats in the State House have picked up the cause, and face the usual, "it'll cause unemployment" crap the wingers always say.
The facts tell a different story, past raises have been unemployment neutral and advance growth, payroll and tax revenue without costing jobs.
If the GOP weren't such effective liars, the world would be a much better place for everyone, not just those in the top ten percent.
