the Economy › Minimum Wage
9>9 Personal answerThe minimum wage was started to put a limit on how low to pay the young workers. In todays time, more and more single parents, senior citizens, and college students are working skilled jobs at minimum wage rates. Instead of raising minimum wage, we should reclassify what a minimum wage job is. Furthermore, we should establish minimum wage rates for different age groups, and have a tier system that classifies each job in tiers. Each tier's minimum rage should go up to the last tiers highest wage. Having 3-4 tiers in each age group would reduce the number of people at or under the poverty line, it will create better workers, and allow for less turn over. It will also reduce the number of unemployed workers. Jobs such as fast food, retail, gas station attendants etc, would be worked mainly by high school and college students, leaving more skilled jobs for working adults. |

Loopholes in offshore banking laws being used to evade taxes should be closed. Individuals, corporations, businesses, banks, etc. with money in offshore accounts should be subject to additional auditing and potentially required to pay back-taxes on the income that was held in offshore accounts for the purpose of tax evasion. Additionally, accounts associated with tax fraud, laundering, terrorism, etc. should be subject to additional governmental oversight and required to undergo regular audits for a certain number of years going forward, to help ensure and prevent further abuse of income and assets held in offshore accounts. Those with repeated offenses or those not abiding by implemented regulations aimed at limiting abuse and increasing transparency should be subject to freezing of offshore assets/accounts, temporary barring of involvement or investment in offshore accounts, etc., and parties could be charged with criminal or civil offenses if deemed necessary. All parties involved should be required to publicly acknowledge their involvement with and the existence of such accounts, especially if these accounts could be considered a conflict of interest or lead to corruption.
