Raise The Wage Minimum Wage, For America

You know, the cell phone companies really understand the power that consumers have. They made smartphones reasonably priced so everyone can have one. Now everybody has one and their paying for data, and apps with companies advertising in these apps. They've opened up a whole new marketplace never before used. Now couldn't this same rule apply to the whole minimum wage debacle? Think about it. Disregard your views on the situation and think about what I'm saying. Raise the minimum wage so more people have more money to spend. In a world ruled by capitalism, you would think companies would be jumping at the chance to pay their employees more to, keep the flow of money going back up to the employers. Without the consumer (the underpaid employees) capitalism is nothing. Capitalism ultimately works like a powerful Red Wood with the CEOs at the top and the consumers (i.e employees) at the bottom. A strong consumer will in turn give way for a stronger CEO. Republicans love to throw the "trickle down" argument around (that the wealth of the CEO will trickle down to everybody), let's throw the "trickle up" argument right back at them. It's time America. Raise the minimum wage.
