During last night's State of The Union address, President Obama said a few things that really stood out. The one statement that really stood out and had us talking around the water cooler today was his stance on minimum wage.

Obama said,

Tonight, let’s declare that in the wealthiest nation on Earth, no one who works full-time should have to live in poverty, and raise the federal minimum wage to $9.00 an hour. This single step would raise the incomes of millions of working families."
