An economist would say that the minimum wage isn’t all bad or all good. it’s a little of both. present an argument (one paragraph or more) for either keeping or abolishing the minimum wage. back up your position with economic reasoning.

The minimum wage is the lowest legal wage companies can pay workers. The purpose of minimum wage laws is to stop employers from exploiting desperate workers. The minimum wage should provide enough income to afford a living wage. That is the amount needed to provide enough food, clothing, and shelter.

Some economists argue that the minimum wage should be kept because of it advantages to the economy and the workers. First, workers will be able to cover the cost of living. Therefore, they are more productive if they have a decent standard of living. Second, it reduces income inequality while providing an incentive to work. The incentive makes it better for society than welfare or a universal basic income.  Third, a minimum wage spurs economic growth. It gives workers more money to spend. This increases demand and business revenue. Fourth, workers who have more time and money can then invest in their education. This further increases their productivity. A more educated workforce increases innovation and the number of small businesses. Fifth, minimum wage laws benefit individual businesses. Workers are less likely to leave to find a higher-paying job.  

On the other hand, some economists argue that the minimum wage should be abolished because it raises business labor costs. That's already the largest budget item for most of them. When the government forces them to pay more per worker, they hire fewer workers to keep the total labor costs the same. This increases the unemployment rate. As well,  a minimum wage penalizes companies that are labor-intensive. By default, this rewards those that are in capital-intensive industries. Over time, this can shift the very fabric of the country's economic base. As well, minimum wage laws may increase job outsourcing. Companies move their facilities to countries where labor costs are lower.

    racial conflict and discrimination has existed ever since man learned to kill with rocks and bones. these conflicts arose from disputes between territory, power, wealth, religion, or simple difference. some of the most infamous racial disputes include slavery, the holocaust, and the civil rights movement.

    these listed disputes often resulted in casualties from all sides. riots, wars, imprisonment, and lynching are all commonly associated with racial conflict on severe levels.

      however, racism is an improving issue in recent decades. people are being more accepting and welcoming of diverse populations. though, the world isn't perfect and it will take much more time, if ever, until the world is rid of racism.
