Minimum Wage

There have been a lot of news lately, about disgruntled fast food workers demanding raising the minimum wage to at least 15 dollars an hour. For many in the U.S. this is an extremely bad idea as it could destabilize the economy with the vast amounts of money of flowing through. The rise in pay increase would also be unfair to many others as simply working for a fast food restaurant should not earn 15 an hour. From my experience the work is not hard and there are many people that would love to get a job   I currently work for a McDonald's and the minimum wage is 8.25 an hour and although I would love to earn more it is just not realistic in the state the world is in right now.
