Poverty and the Minimum Wage by David Parsons

This eye-opening economic study takes on the minimum wage debate with rigorous data, revealing how minimum wage laws function less as a poverty-fighting tool and more as a reallocation of income among low-wage workers, boosting earnings for adult women while costing teenagers their jobs, and challenges policymakers and economists alike to rethink whether minimum wage laws are truly an efficient way to lift the poor out of poverty.
