The minimum wage is adjusted But can not catch up with price rise

The minimum wage is adjusted But can not catch up with price rise
"From the beginning of this year, since Jiangsu Province has taken the lead in raising the lowest wage standard in the whole country, Zhejiang, Guangdong, Fujian, Shanghai and other places adjust the lowest wage standard successively too, adjusting ranges are all above 10%, some provinces exceed 20%. " --Www.people.com.cn
Recently, our country several provinces raise the lowest wage standard successively, the amount of the increase is in 10%, the area that even has is up to 20%, there is the analyst that thinks: China begins to retract the economic incentive policy, it may cause the inflation to get a salary raise by a wide margin.
One that is with price is skyrocketing constantly, it seems to already become task of top priority to adjust the minimum wage. I know that not only in the eastern area, also rises on the first on the urban price in the Midwest like Shanxi provincial capital Taiyuan. Yesterday, each kilogram of fresh hairtail of wholesale market of aquatic products for five Longkou reached 30 yuan, frozen hairtail costs 16 yuan per kilogram, the perch is 26 yuan per kilogram, grass carp is 12 yuan per kilogram, the carp is 10 yuan per kilogram, the crab costs 70 yuan per kilogram. According to the introduction of an industrial and commercial administrator responsible for this market, recent aquatic products is a price of one day, have already risen the level on last the Spring Festival at present. Xia Ri scorching, sweet mung bean soup to lower first-selection of heat, but the citizens in Taiyuan reflect one after another recently the price of the mung bean is even more expensive than the meat, average price of 11.8 yuan 500 grams.
The intersection of Taiyuan and city begin, implement new most low wage standard too from April 1: 850 yuan, 780 yuan, 710 yuan, 640 yuan. But face the upward price at full speed, these low-income groups are unbearable.
I worry to adjust, rise most low wage standard must increase production cost of enterprise very, expenses,etc., this has offered " 10,000 reasons " for the fact that the enterprise goods rose in price ,Not only enterprises or even the scenic spot begin to rise in price, it is 80 yuan that the yellow crane's floor ticket is risen by original 50 yuan, amount of the increase is up to 60%, the amount of the increase compared with the minimum wage may be as far apart as heaven and earth, but these will be shifted to innocent consumers finally. I think, it is just the looks, relatively to adjust the lowest wage standard to price rise just in time, seem to be that a ridiculously inadequate effort to save a grave situation.
