Laissez-Faire

Very strongly agree

No, and eliminate all wage standards

This answer aligns most closely with the laissez-faire ideology, which advocates for minimal government intervention in the economy. Eliminating all wage standards would allow the market to determine wages based on supply and demand. Historical examples include the 19th-century United States, where there were no federal minimum wage laws and wages were determined by market forces.

No, this will only cause prices to increase in a never ending cycle

No, most minimum wage jobs are meant to develop experience, not support a family

While this answer does not advocate for eliminating wage standards, it does emphasize the idea that minimum wage jobs are meant for gaining experience rather than supporting a family. This aligns with the laissez-faire belief that the market should determine wages based on supply and demand, and that individuals should seek higher-paying jobs as they gain experience and skills.

Disagree

Regardless, minimum wage standards should be adjusted by age group

Although this answer suggests adjusting minimum wage standards, it still involves government intervention in the economy, which goes against the laissez-faire ideology. However, it does acknowledge that different age groups may have different wage needs, which could be seen as a more market-based approach.

Yes, and make it a living wage
