Possible question
Fragment of a discussion from Course talk:POLI380JAN2011Owen/Survey/Poverty
Haha! Only thing I don't like about the question is that it equates a wage increase with reducing the poverty rate whereas what I was hoping to find out [and this comes down to what you're interested in] was whether people already believed that increasing the minimum wage helped reducing poverty. I think if increasing the min wage guaranteed a lower poverty level it would be nowhere near as controversial a topic.
