Yeah—everyone gets a $10 raise, that will make them feel better. Except when the cost of everything goes up $11.

Have these idiots ever taken an economics course?

One commentator, IIRC Mark Levin, said the 'income inequality' mantra was not such much to help the minimum wage employee, but to benefit unions who salary rates are keyed to the minimum wage rate. If the minimum wage goes up, so does union wages.
