@maybestains2 Prices go up anyway. But we've now ended up in a situation where there's no point in actually doing well for yourself. Why take on a job with responsibilities if you can stack shelves for a few grand less?
Instead of minimum wage increases, there should be a statutory increase of everyone's wages.
The middle class gets a little more gutted each and every time they increase minimum wages. It doesn't help anything, just creates even more wealth inequality.
This is completely unsustainable... and I work for min wage. The min wage needs to be FROZEN and Personal Allowances raised instead.
