2. Wow, he only wants to lower it?
I thought libertarians wanted to get rid of it altogether and make all states right to work states. Get rid of public sector unions too.

fools.

3. He said lowering the minimum wage would
benefit the poor. How can that be? Trying to raise a family on min wage is almost impossible, so let's lower it and pay the poor $2.00 an hour (pick a figure) will benefit them? What in hell is he smoking?

7. it would help the poor by forcing them out of their addiction to minimum wage
and into looking for a better job with better pay and better benefits, which of course there are many many available everywhere across the country with no expensive training required and that anyone could do--in the strange dreamland where Ron Paul lives in his imagination.

6. He wants to get rid of the minimum wage altogether not merely lower it.

9. If he thinks that's such a good idea, why doesn't he lower his own wage?
He would thereby set a fine example and would personally lower the deficit.
