Saying Goodbye To The Kojo Nnamdi Show
On this last episode, we look back on 23 years of joyous, difficult and always informative conversation.
Across the metro region, state and local governments have contemplated raising the minimum wage. Other municipalities have mandated a “living wage”. Advocates portray these moves as social and economic justice, while skeptics call them job-killers. Join Kojo for a look at the economic and ethical implications of the wages we earn.
