i said it in a previous thread. if the minimum wage is too high then there are probably less jobs and kids to enter the workforce, the stepping stone. We then have career minimum-wagers through no fault of their own.
You can't have a separate minimum wage for teens doing the same job as an adult, but a HS kid looking to make a few bucks at McDonald's doesn't need the motivation of a living wage, they will be happy with the $10/hour. Not sure how to resolve that issue.
