An example of why government can not run anything, as if the VA was not enough.

So raise every minimum worker to $15.

The worker now making $15 will insist on a a raise, maybe to $20.

The supervisor making $20 will have to be raised to $25 or $30....and so it goes.

All because of some kid just out of school who has absolutely no experience and who should probably pay to get the experience.

Union wages are tied to the minimum wage (2x, 3x, etc.), so what you describe will automatically happen.

Watch for a grand exodus of business go overseas.....and population. Which may very well be the intent. Spread the wealth over there as if they haven’t done enough already.

Sad...but we’re letting this happen.

Do you think this push is REALLY about minimum wage?
Most unions ALREADY have a clause that ties their wages to multiples of the minimum wage. EVERY union worker in Seattle just got paid...

what is this person going to supervise?
Machines that will make people orders and the two people who collect the money.
Everyone else will be out on the street.
