This isn’t about you though, it’s about us. The collective. The country. Minimum wage will be paid to some people because capitalism, and it’s abhorrent. Double it and you’re still not paying enough to reach a livable wage in a low cost of living state.
Make it $20 federally and those of us that are privileged to make more than minimum wage will also get raises. The companies and executives will have to make less money. If a company can’t afford to pay that then they can go out of business.
Absolutely. Put it at 20 or 30 or whatever is needed. I would do that in an instant, but of course, making enemies from the powerful greedy corps will mean that I won’t be around long.
