| Message | Why do you oppose? The minimum wage is effective at two things: (i) driving a wage-price spiral and (ii) inducing stagflation. Conservative remains confounded by the parties on the other side of the aisle. - CPA |

| Message | Without no minimum wage, businesses would be free to offer extremely low wages - wages that would push a lot of Alorians beneath the poverty line. There needs to be a basic minimum wage in which a worker can live above the poverty line. |
