NEED HELP PLEASE!!! WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST!!!

1.) The local community voted to fund construction of a public light-rail system. In order to clear a path for the light rail, the government will have to condemn various family-owned houses and several apartment buildings to make way for a transit station. What are the potential effects of the light-rail construction?


2.) The federal government decides to increase the minimum wage by $1.12 an hour. What are the potential economic effects of this decision?

Respuesta :

1. Railroad can now give supplies better but now many are homeless

2. Think of it simplistically, if an employer can pay 5 people with $10 each (just an example), and then now the employer is forced to give each person $12.50, that means he’s now forced to lay off one of those 5 people so the other 4 people can have $12.50 each.

Basically it results in employees making more money, but also that other employees suffer and lose their jobs because of it. People want to raise minimum wage until they lose their jobs lol
