Raising Minimum Wage Lifts Single Mothers Out of Poverty and Boosts U.S. Economy
Wednesday, December 19th, 2012This gem of an article is published on the UT web site.
Some quotes:
African American and Hispanic women are hit the hardest.
Can there be an article about the economy where women and minorities are not the hardest hit?
Another:

Shocking!
…where race, low education and limited skills combine, the risks of long-term poverty for the women and their children…
Race, low education, limited skills. One of those three is not like the other two and has no (or limited) effect on wages.
You would think that a “news” article featured on the web site of the state’s premier university would have a little better scholarship associated with it. You really should read the whole thing, as you will find evidence of why I think higher education is in a terrible mess.
