Summary: Big dreams on a shoe-string budget: American optimism, or pure nonsense? WKNO producer Sarah Ledbetter takes a poke at our myths about the minimum wage and the accessibility of the American Dream.
Nice to get a balance there, yes. Although it would have been better to get other economist opinions at end rather than ending with 'not all its cracked up to be' as there are many studies that show minwage improves or doesnt have much effect on employment
Good balance between authorities and the real people that fight everyday to survive. It's not hit you over the head with opinions which I like. This is a very good methodical yet quietly human piece.
