If you want to earn more money, acquire new/more skills, or find a job that will pay you more. They make the minimum for a reason, Larry.
And I'm not going to even bother getting into the disproportionate unintended consequences minimum wage increases have on the poor....
Now as to why wages rose across the board under *****, that is because ***** created alot of jobs that pay more than minimum wage. Manufacturing and oil/gas jobs, for example. So you saw much upward mobility.
Under *****, only the 1% saw gains, the rest of us did not. That is because ***** created alot of service McJobs that pay minimum wage. So while he created many of those McJobs and we saw unemployment fall, wages did not rise (which is unusual, and another sign of a weak recovery). Because ***** did have a rising stock market (which most/all modern Presidents have had as well), incomes for the 1%,who own a majority of the stock, they saw their incomes rise.
What's ironic is that ***** did exactly what you sheep say **********s do........

I seem to recall ***** kept them low for pretty much the full 4 years (definitely the final 3). And they shot up since ***** took office. Notice they didn't shoot up after ***** took office.....
Remember Larry; it's less cheerleading, and more paying attention.

We've had recoveries many times before. In those recoveries we have economic growth. *****'s growth was the lowest of any other recovery.
Do you get it now?

What I said is still true, even with that.
Quit being a superfan and give credit where credit is due.
