Employers already prefer to hire high school and college students so this would only give them a legit reason.Have two minimum wages. One for under 18 and a living wage for over 18. Let these employers start paying a living wage or fill all their slots with kids. No more taking advantage of the poor!

Why should someone's labor be exploited just because they are 18?
18 year olds need to pay for college. Because minimum wage is so low, they are forced to borrow money and go into debt just because employers refuse to compensate fairly
why , because they are a threat to Trump. I swear, Trump is above the law and can't be indicted because he would have to indict himself.
Good going Cons, we now have a Potus who is above the law and is going to take down the FBI with Fox's help.
Nope.You are in favor of age discrimination?
Definition: Age Discrimination | Equal Opportunity and Affirmative ActionAge discrimination definition
Definition: Age Discrimination. The Age Discrimination in Employment Act (ADEA) prohibits age discrimination against older workers (persons 40 or older) in all aspects of employment. The Minnesota Human Rights Act more broadly protects all people over the age of 18 years from age discrimination as students and employees.
What part of 18 did you have trouble understanding?
You are unaware that "18" and "over 18" are in fact ages? Did you miss this part of the definition you quote:
"It is unlawful to discriminate against an employee or applicant on the basis of age with respect to any term or condition of employment including but not limited to hiring, firing, promotion, layoff, compensation, benefits, job assignments, and training."
Age discrimination.

If they don't borrow money to get educated for better pay.......conservatives mock them for having minimum wage jobs
Can't win
You are the one who brought up the market....I merely demonstrated that the market is capable of adjustingi don't give a shit what the market does. my job as an employer is to figure out how much i can pay a given position and find people to fill said position. if you need $60k a year to live then don't take my $35k a year job and bitch i'm not paying enough.why should they make $15 to flip a burger when that is more than the market can really bear for that position?Why should someone's labor be exploited just because they are 18?

as an employer it is not my job to pay you enough for your choices. it is up to you to find a job that will sustain your chosen lifestyle and improve your skills to the point where you can do this.
The "market" hasn't raised minimum wage in nine years
During that time, the price of beef for that burger has more than doubled
Somehow "the market" compensated

Low wage workers are exploited because they lack bargaining power in the workforce. Doesn't justify their being exploited
they lack the skills to ask for more.You are the one who brought up the market....I merely demonstrated that the market is capable of adjustingi don't give a shit what the market does. my job as an employer is to figure out how much i can pay a given position and find people to fill said position. if you need $60k a year to live then don't take my $35k a year job and bitch i'm not paying enough.why should they make $15 to flip a burger when that is more than the market can really bear for that position?Why should someone's labor be exploited just because they are 18?

they are more than welcome to take any gov program out there to improve their skillset for a better paying job. if you want bargaining power, be able do to more than ask if i want fries with that.

Funny, I managed to put myself through school without going into debt... I worked full time and went to school part time. It was just he way I had to do it. Nobody forced me to borrow money.

Interesting....what year?
My first year tuition was $650. I paid for it earning $2.10 an hour over the summer
Todays minimum wage doesn't come close to paying for tuition
Did you lie to your recruiter, an agent of the federal government?Were you a liar then too?The age of majority is generally 18. Those underage cannot vote, join the armed services or buy liquor.You are in favor of age discrimination?
When I turned 18, I had been in the Navy for 8 months.
I never have been a liar and never been a liberal. Is there a point to your insult? If there is, only you know what it might be.

It a perfect economic system (I know we don’t have one) there would be no need for a minimum wage. Employers would be free to pay the market rate for labor, and workers would be free to expect pay commensurate with the work/value they provide. Those workers who provide more would move up the wage scale.
If employers were free to pay "market" rates, and presuming the elimination of unions, wages would follow the up and down cycles of labor availability. Put simply, every sumer when the kids get out of school, wages would plummet, and when they return to school, wages would sky rocket.
Nine years is a long time to stay at a minimum wage job. Someone isn't taking advantage of opportunities or learning new skills.why should they make $15 to flip a burger when that is more than the market can really bear for that position?Why should someone's labor be exploited just because they are 18?
