Angry right’s secret revulsion: Why they really dodge minimum wage questions

Angry right’s secret revulsion: Why they <em>really</em> dodge minimum wage questions

"It’s no great secret that Republicans oppose increasing the minimum wage. They don’t pretend it’s something they want to do under any circumstances. They don’t even really bother disguising their opposition. They cloak their view in dated and oversimplified economic arguments about labor demand and economic growth when the real impediment is ideological, and so it’s a somewhat better kept secret that many Republicans oppose the minimum wage altogether."
