Minimum wage

The state of Arkansas has just passed a minimum wage bill. This bill raises the wage to 6.25 from the federal law that call for 5.10.When a right to work state with a Republian Governor raises the minimum wage then you know it long over due.
Wal-mart will soon move out of Arkansas.

Well, they way I heard it. They were about to pass a const. amendment that would allow for
a set increase overtime. this was
passed so the percentage increase
would not go through. The other
would have meant more money overtime. It would have been a continual increase. this is a one time thing.
