If you really believe this to be true, then YOU are the cheapskate. Why are you stopping at $15/hour? If raising the minimum wage has never had an effect on employment, then make it $50/hour, or even $100/hour. Imagine how nice that will be!
If you don’t want to make it $50 or $100 per hour, explain why not?
Well I do know that a $15.00/hr min wage would push the cost of a McD’s 1/4 pounder to $50 maybe $60 per burger. Maybe a $100!!!
