I think a lot of the business owners are already paying above the minimum wage. The minimum wage is strictly a number that is set. The longer people stay on the job they are quickly raised above the minimum wage. I don't see us having a lot of seasonal jobs in the community. Most of our jobs are pretty steady.

If you're making the minimum wage you want it raised. If you're an employer it's going to affect your wage structure. It's always passed along to the consumer, whether people realize that or not.

The gas exploration companies pay a very high wage. People who are underemployed today will change jobs. Then they will turn around and spend that money in the city and in the county. There will be an impact, but I don't think it will change minimum salaries because the local business are not going to be able to compete with what the gas companies pay.
