每個學期很多學生想以最低工資作為其學期論文的題目,今個學期我全部打回頭。一來已經太多人寫過;二來無論水平高低每遍的結論其本上都是最低工資沒影響;三來近兩年通脹那麼厲害,不用寫也知道不會有影響。
Every term plenty of students want their term paper to be about minimum wage. This term I allowed none to do so, for three reasons: 1. too many have already written on this topic; 2. almost every single paper, good or bad, found that minimum wage have no significant impact; 3. inflation is running high enough that minimum wage is toothless.
