Minimun Wage

Mrs. Peters point of view is that the government should have not say so in what a company pay thier employees. He say that if minimum wage is increase, more people are more likey to lose a job than to get pay the extra money. He also says that it goes against the whole ideal free enterprise. He say circumstances of company differ from region to region and company to company. For example, one region my be booming and be able to afford the increase, while the more slugglish region cannot afford the increase and start to cut employees. Another example is Microsoft which make billions of dollars a year to a corner bakery that would make a average of 50,000-55,000 a year.Mrs. Peters thinks government intervention, to increase minimum wage, in a free enterprise would not help but hinder the peolpe.

Mike believes that goverment interventions to increase minimum wage would make companies pay what the employees is worth. He thinks without minimum wage, companines would railroad and exploit their workers. He also believe companies do not pay what the employee is worth to increase revenue. He says with government intervention more people will be paid what they are worth instead of companies overworking their employees for little to nothing. He think minimum wage looks out for the common worker and supports them.

1.Mrs. Peter, because she provide a more clear and factual point of view to minimum wage.

2.Mikes strong points are the compaines do not pay what they employee is actually worth and that they do not not pay that to increase profit. His weak points are he did not provide enough facts and evidence to support his argument.

Mrs. Peter strong points is that she provide fact and evidence to support their clause, while giving examples. Her weak point is that she does not make minimum wage and she does not know how it feels.

3. Increase, because the cost of livinig is increasing and they are making more and more profits while the people suffer.
