I understand perfectly.  My son works in a field of entry level work, and they go through potential employees faster than you can believe.  Problem?  No one really wants to work these days, especially the young.  But they want to start their employment as CEO, not accepting such status is earned.  Raising the min wage is not going to solve anything; it will only cause businesses to close, move, or fire any employees they just can't afford.  You simply cannot pay journeyman wages to unskilled labor; it won't succeed.  And why should the unskilled to be paid so much for flipping burgers or putting fries in a container?  Of course, this is all supported roundly by unions and Democrats because, frankly, they never think anything through and could care less about the repercussions, but they will.  Oh yes they will when small businesses start folding up all over the place and leave this employment wasteland empty and dry.
