"DUDE, WHERE'S MY SUMMER JOB?"

According to economist David Neumark of the University of California at Irvine, for every 10 percent increase in the minimum wage, employment for high school dropouts and young black adults and teenagers falls by 8.5 percent. In the past 11 months alone, the United States’ minimum wage has increased by more than twice that amount. So it should be no surprise to see teen jobs disappearing or to hear bleak testimony from employers across the country that make these hiring decisions."
