    "The State of the Union proposal with by far the most political juice is going to be a call to raise the federal minimum wage to $9 and index it to inflation.

    That would put it, in inflation-adjusted terms, back up to its 1981 level."*

    Conservatives are very opposed to this incremental bump.

    Why? Would the increase help people who need it most, or hurt them like John Boehner says?
