It always sounds great for the politicians to claim we raised the minimum wage and how awesome we are for doing it. But in IMHO they always leave out that everyone else who does not get an increase gets a purchasing power decrease.
I don't think any employer is going to cut your pay with the unemployment rate this low unless they want you to leave.
