Discussion - In order to participate in a knowledgeable

Discussion

Prior to beginning work on this discussion,

• Read Chapters 3 and 4 of Macroeconomics: Private and Public Choice.

For this discussion you will debate with your peers the concept of increasing minimum wage.

In order to participate in a knowledgeable debate, you must have a firm understanding of each side of the issue. Your textbook discusses minimum wage in detail and like many traditional economists, for the most part, does not support increases in the minimum wage citing the negative impacts that such increases may create. Research at least two scholarly and/or credible resources (other than the Macroeconomics: Private and Public Choice text). Use factual information; do not simply document or restate opinion.
