Minimum wage harms minority youth in new study
Williams notes a Washington study by Ewen and Macpherson for the Employment Policies Institute. It finds each 10 percent increase in minimum wage lowers employment for white, Hispanic, and especially black 16 to 24 year old males, with hours worked also dropping, and links the impact to low skilled jobs in eating and drinking establishments. It argues higher wages price out the least skilled, entrenching a cycle of unemployment and limited mobility.
