Minimum wage does not improve quality of life nor economic mobility. It keeps you from progressing into upper ladder in society. I would say keep minimum wage low so people find reasons to improve themselves

 @99QPD4Qanswered…1yr1Y

Yes but adjusted by age group with over 25's receiving a living wage.

 @8XSVGX7Social Democratsanswered…2yrs2Y

Yes, but a higher minimum wage alone is meaningless as long as cost of living remains extraordinarily high. Affordable housing and competition in insurance and energy markets would make a bigger difference.

 @8TNLLBGSinn Féinanswered…3yrs3Y

Yes, only for students that are looking to contribute to society. Not to low skilled workers who don't plan to progress

 @8RLNYM8answered…3yrs3Y

Yes, as said previously, everybody should be able to live decently (housing, food, clothes, socialise, etc)

 @8R9BLBHanswered…3yrs3Y

 @99RSG8Ranswered…1yr1Y

It should be raised based on levels on inflation in the economic market so people who are dependent on minimum wage jobs can provide for themselves and their families.

 @8PWQ246answered…3yrs3Y

No, but encourage employers to give better career progression for those working in that job for a while

 @8C5RDBVanswered…4yrs4Y

No, the national minimum wage should be abolished to cater to low skill workers who are being overlooked.

How do you feel about the concept of a 'living wage' where the minimum wage is based on the cost of basic needs in your area versus a flat country-wide rate?

 @ISIDEWITHasked…5mos5MO

Do you believe that raising the minimum wage might affect the quality of service or products as businesses try to cut costs elsewhere?

 @ISIDEWITHasked…5mos5MO

How might a higher minimum wage impact your community, particularly in areas where many people work minimum wage jobs?

 @ISIDEWITHasked…5mos5MO

What are some of the challenges you think teenagers might face finding part-time jobs if employers had to pay a higher minimum wage?

 @ISIDEWITHasked…5mos5MO

If entry-level salaries were higher, do you think it would change your decision about going to college or choosing a particular career path?

 @ISIDEWITHasked…5mos5MO

Imagine if your favorite small business had to pay their workers more; do you think it would change the way they operate or the services they offer?

 @ISIDEWITHasked…5mos5MO

How do you think raising the minimum wage could affect the prices of things you buy regularly like food, clothes, or entertainment?

 @ISIDEWITHasked…5mos5MO

Can you share a personal experience where earning more would have substantially improved your or another's well-being and how it impacted you?

 @ISIDEWITHasked…5mos5MO

Have you ever felt that a job you or someone you know had was paying less than what the work was worth, and what would you consider a fair wage?

 @ISIDEWITHasked…5mos5MO

How would your life change if your first job paid you significantly more due to an increased minimum wage?

 @93S334Yanswered…2yrs2Y

yes i think the government should increase the minimun wage becujase people are not being able to afford thing and especially because prices are increasing fastly like houses

 @93JPYHYanswered…2yrs2Y

Yes, the minimum wage is not nearly enough to live off and there's lots of people that are struggling to afford things because of this minimum wage, especially because of the cost of living crisis.

 @93JPRYCanswered…2yrs2Y

yes i belive they should increase the minimum wage because house prices are contantly increasing causing people to be having a morgage for life or not being able to afford a house becomg without one.

 @4SNPK4Banswered…2yrs2Y

We should start providing a decent universal basic income, enough to live comfortably with no additional income, after which minimum wage laws will be unnecessary.

 @8PGZTFZanswered…3yrs3Y

Yes, and adjust it every year according to inflation and make it a living wage and should be adjusted by age group

 @4SNPK4Banswered…3yrs3Y

Create a universal basic income, after which minimum wage laws are unnecessary.
