Liberalism (Modern)

Very strongly agree

Yes, and adjust it every year according to inflation

Modern liberalism strongly agrees with adjusting the minimum wage according to inflation, as it ensures that the minimum wage maintains its purchasing power over time. This approach has been advocated by many liberal politicians, such as Senator Elizabeth Warren, who has proposed legislation to tie the minimum wage to inflation.

Yes

Modern liberalism generally supports raising the federal minimum wage as a way to reduce income inequality and ensure that workers can afford basic necessities.

Strongly agree

Yes, and make it a living wage

Modern liberalism generally supports the idea of a living wage, which is a wage that allows workers to afford basic necessities without relying on government assistance. Many liberal politicians, such as Senator Bernie Sanders, have advocated for raising the federal minimum wage to a living wage level, such as $15 per hour. However, the specific definition of a living wage and the extent to which the minimum wage should be raised may vary among liberals.

Neutral

Regardless, minimum wage standards should be adjusted by age group

Modern liberalism does not have a strong consensus on whether minimum wage standards should be adjusted by age group. Some liberals may support age-based adjustments as a way to encourage youth employment, while others may argue that all workers, regardless of age, deserve a fair wage that allows them to afford basic necessities.

Disagree

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

Modern liberalism acknowledges that raising the minimum wage could lead to some price increases, but generally believes that the benefits of reducing income inequality and improving living standards for low-wage workers outweigh the potential negative consequences. Empirical evidence on the relationship between minimum wage increases and price inflation is mixed, and many liberals argue that modest increases in the minimum wage have not led to significant price increases in the past.

Disagree

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

Modern liberalism generally disagrees with the idea that minimum wage jobs are only meant to develop experience. While some liberals may acknowledge that entry-level jobs can provide valuable experience, they also believe that all workers deserve a fair wage that allows them to afford basic necessities, regardless of the nature of their job.

Strongly disagree

No

Modern liberalism typically disagrees with not raising the minimum wage, as it is seen as a way to combat poverty and income inequality. However, some liberals may argue that raising the minimum wage could have negative consequences, such as job loss or increased prices, and may advocate for alternative solutions like expanding the Earned Income Tax Credit.

Very strongly disagree

No, and eliminate all wage standards

Modern liberalism strongly disagrees with eliminating all wage standards, as it believes in the importance of government intervention to protect workers and ensure a fair wage. Eliminating wage standards would likely lead to exploitation and increased income inequality, which goes against the core principles of modern liberalism.
