Romney Says He Sympathizes With Struggling Middle Class Workers, But His Policies Would Make Them Worse Off

"He also recently flipped his position on raising the minimum wage, saying, 'There’s probably not a need to raise the minimum wage.'

The minimum wage would need be be near $10 today to have the purchasing power that it had in the 1960s."
