Minimum wage: The rising tide that lifts all wages?

Carlisle Sentinel on PA's higher minimum wage. Alhtough, our study is quoted, the context is not fully given. Our study does indeed claim that jobs will be lost; however, those jobs will be lost at the lower end of the pay scale and does not suggest an overall loss of jobs in PA. Our job count will most assuredly increase in PA in 2007, albeit at a lower level than if the wage floor not been artificially lifted by politicians. Jobs will indeed be lost.
