If $ 15.00 per hour will help these souls imagine how $65 per hour will vastly improve their lives.

Also, throw one unicorn ride per week

You can have $15 per hour minimum wage or 30 million illegals and their children depressing wages - but not both.

Why stop at $15/hr. Make it $25, $30, or $50 would be better. Think how many loafs of bread you could afford. Oh, wait, it’d be the same with inflation.

I repair them. Not voting rat. While sales would likely go up with rats in charge the honest fact is sales are going up anyways. That and i just cant force myself to vote for a rat.

“Or to put it another way, Democrats want to make it illegal for you to take a job for less then $15 per hour.”

I am self employed, doing business startups. I figure I’m making maybe $4 / hr now, (though the upside could be huge). Should I fire myself?

“Total income around $12/hr earned + welfare = about $38/hr earned alone.
At $15/hr, welfare starts cutting off and total income starts dropping.
At $18/hr, welfare evaporates and total income plummets 1/3rd.”

Seattle is already having a wake up call, and they are at “only” $11 per hour now, on their way to $15.

Minimum wage employees are requesting fewer hours because their government bennies are being compromised.
