Yet the Right is against a minimum wage increase. Here in NC that would help employment and give raises to many that are skilled labor. In all my years since I made Minimum of $1.85/hr, every time the wage was raised it led to increases for all.
Employers are finding they need to keep workers who are trained. The increase in minimum gives many a chance to move to a new employer.

Most business areas added jobs, but the big winners in December were construction, health care and business services. Those three industries accounted for half of December's job gains.

What kind of jobs are they?
How many manufacturing jobs have we brought back to American soil?
NAFTA was probably the most damaging piece of legislation to American jobs to ever pass.
Our deals with China are a very close second.
Repeal NAFTA and tax imports to match what our trading partners impose upon us. Level that playing field and jobs will come back. Over taxing American industry won't bring jobs home to America, but it will drive business overseas to more business friendly countries.
