7.) I believe that Sen. Ted Kennedy is correct that if we raise the minimum wage many families will benefit. Many people in this country are living off of every penny. If we raise the minimum amount of money they can make, then that is more money in their pockets for food and other daily necessities. The minimum wage was created at a time when prices were lower. Now prices have gone up, but the minimum wage has stayed the same. This makes it extremely harder to live off of the minimum wage. Other folks (big U.S. coorperations) don't want to raise the minimum wage, because the money used to raise it would have normally gone in their pockets. This means that they are losing money. They make so much money, however, that I believe it is more fair for people with nothing to get more money instead of the rich getting richer.
12.) Morgan and Alex are very different people. Alex is a more serious person. She is very serious about money, and she saves it in whatever way she can. She is very strict when it comes to budgeting. Morgan on the other hand is more childish than Alex. He is wiling to spend a little bit of money on little presents, whether it is for his niece and nephew or for Alex's birthday. He isn't as strict about budgeting as Alex is. They are opposites in terms of how they spend their shared money. This can cause conflict. They both have very different, but very strong, views about money and budgeting. These strong opposite opinions clash and cause conflict between Alex and Morgan.
