Has nothing to do with either - raising the minimum wage raises the union pay scales too - that's what the Dims were after.

Yep. Minimum-wage is all about union pay. Higher minimum-wages = Fatter paychecks for union flunkies.

And the poor, the minorities, teens...you know, the people that the Rats care about so much, get screwed and uses up more taxpayer-funded programs which enriches the Dims even more.
