Minimum wage.
Minimum wage.
When the government sets a price floor on earnings, it is known as a minimum wage. This legal minimum salary that employers must pay their workers is intended to ensure a basic standard of living for employees. By establishing a minimum wage, the government aims to reduce poverty and improve the economic well-being of low-income workers. However, if set too high, it can lead to unintended consequences such as increased unemployment.
Economic stability is served when the government sets prices.

When the government sets a price floor, it establishes a minimum price that can be charged for a good or service, often to protect producers' incomes. This is commonly seen in agricultural markets, where price floors help ensure farmers can cover their costs. However, if the price floor is set above the market equilibrium, it can lead to surpluses, as the higher price may reduce demand while encouraging increased supply. Consequently, while intended to support producers, price floors can distort market dynamics and lead to inefficiencies.

Under this program, Congress sets a price floor for a specific crop, ensuring that farmers receive a minimum price for their produce. If the market price falls below the established price, the government may step in to purchase the surplus at the fixed price, thereby providing stability to the agricultural sector. However, this approach can lead to overproduction and surpluses, which can be costly for the government and distort market forces.
