  •  
    Christos Makridis, the author of this article, through his research has discovered that raising the minimum wage does not improve the issue of inequality in America, but that it has a negative impact on the workers it attempts to help. The author explains this negative impact by giving examples such as employers reducing hours which causes a lack of skill development due to lack of hours, also employers will not be able to have many incentives for new employees. The author suggested ways for reducing inequality in the latter half of his article by giving business more freedom in determining the wages and that businesses would educate their employees in an effort to increase their profitability and thus raising the wages of their employees.
