$7.50? In this economy? As if money grows on trees. If this wage passed nothing would chancge for the worker. The employers would simple have to work the individual longer and with less help to actual make the profit for the company.

Working conditions would most likely get worse and not improve.

Yes $5.15 is slavery. Wal-mart Corporate Crooks shipping our jobs overseas and de-valuing everything to the point of zero- contributing to the economy. Pay your bills and stay home, you can't afford to go the shopping for clothing and groceries etc.

I would propose $6.50 to $6.75 and hour to adjust for inflation a bit without killing everything and everyone else within and without the economy.
