Closed on

By increasing minimum wage to a wage that is very fair, this will increase revenue for businesses in turn, boosting the economy. Reducing poverty and incentivising people to work. People with money will spend money, meaning it's a never ending circle and people will be able to live not just survive

Research shows increasing the minimum wage will stimulate consumers spending, there for meaning business will also benefit and the economy
