what portion of the following statement do you believe is not supported by the Congressional Budget Office’s reports
This part......"the minimum wage substantially effects 32% of USA's employees' rates"
ToddsterPatriot, refer to the report:
https://www.cbo.gov/system/files/2019-07/CBO-55410-MinimumWage2019.pdf ,
page 17, Figure 6, graph entitled “Shares of Workers, by Family Income Group, 2025”.
2025 projected wage earners within families’ incomes less than twice their family’s sizes’ poverty threshold, account for approximately 36% of all USA’s low-wage rate workers and 15% of all USA’s wage earners.
2025 projected wage earners within families’ incomes less than three times their family’s sizes’ poverty threshold, account for approximately 58% of all USA’s low-wage rate workers and approximately 38% of all USA’s wage earners.
CBO’s reports graphs, charts, and underlying statistics they offer to support their report’s contents, do not contradict, but rather support the statements: “ Minimum wage rate’s benefits to jobs’ rates are inversely related to the differences between the minimum and the jobs’ rates. Families with greater portions of their incomes derived from rates within the low-rate bracket of wage rates, more benefit from the minimum wage rate. The minimum wage rate does not reduce incomes derived from wages”.
