The federal minimum wage was signed into law by President Franklin Roosevelt in 1938.  The first minimum wage was 25 cents an hour.  Even then it was controversial.
Adjusting for inflation, in today's dollars, the minimum wage would be just over $4 an hour.
The federal and Pennsylvania's minimum wage is $7.25 an hour.   Pennsylvania's minimum wage hasn't changed since 2009.  There are 29 other states with higher minimum wages.
Supporters of raising the minimum wage rallied at the state capitol in Harrisburg this week vowing an all-out push to increase the minimum to $10.10 an hour.  
Those who want to increase the minimum wage say it currently is not enough to live or raise a family on.  They add that it would also put more money back into a recovering economy by giving low-income earners more money to spend.
Opponents counter that forcing employers to pay workers more would cost jobs.  They say better and more job training would help workers get the skills they need to compete for higher paying jobs.

We'll delve into the minimum wage issue on Wednesday's Smart Talk with Suzanne Collins, the Communications Director for the National Federation of Indpendent Business in Pennsylvania and Dr. Mark Price, an economist with the Keystone Research Center. 
For more information on the topics mentioned during the show:
Keystone Research's article "Stuck on the Bottom Rung of the Wage Ladder" and current research on the minimum wage.
The National Federation of Independent Business Research Foundation's study on three minimum wage bills in the PA legislature last year.

Smart Talk 2/11/15 B: Minimum wage debate heats up

... Og må heldet altid være med jer!

Vi er tilbage! Kanonerne brager, og det er en ny sæsonstart på Den Rette Hylde.
Det skal fejres med en god snak om bogserien Hunger Games af Suzanne Collins, hvor vi diskuterer dybe emner som team Peeta vs. team Gale, vores første møde med serien, samt hvorledes den sidste bog i serien er god eller ej.

Lyt med, når vi indrømmer hvor meget vi har læst siden sidste sæson, og glæd jer på vores vegne til genetableringen af vores ugentlige udfordringer.

Afsnit #19 - Happy Hunger Games!

Original composition for novel 'The Hunger Games' by Suzanne Collins. Nothing to do with the movie, I wrote this long before it came out.

The Hunger Games Overture (Original Overture - 2010)

This episode was recorded about a month ago and our decision to re-read The Hunger Games was made well before we had any notion of being quarantined. We decided to do a big group re-read of The Hunger Games on our Discord server in anticipation of the upcoming release of the prequel novel. We invited our friend Sam (@democracydiva) back on the show to talk to us about all things Hunger Games. We talked about our history with the series, PTSD, whether or not it holds up, the fashion, and so much more.
