I don't like the idea of the maximum wage. If there was a maximum wage, what would be the point of progressing far into college, like on to graduate school? Your money put into your education wouldn't pay off, so there would be no point. Then our society would lack the professionals it needs, such as doctors or lawyers.

These links are amazing. I used a lot of them while I was writing my paper. They all have different opinions.
