Minimum wage should absolutely be a livable wage. Go direct your comments to the billionaire class stealing all the wealth.
I agree, not sure why everybody assumed I didn’t think people didn’t deserve a living wage. I do. But at the same time be prepared to pay more for things because we all know that corporations will pass along the better wages to the consumer. God forbid the ceo make less and not making record profit
Even if you didn’t intend for that comment to come across that way, just know that the reasoning of “prices are going up because of minimum wage” is the go-to talking point of the “conservatives”. Magically the wealth disparity, negligible marginal tax rate on billionaires, or record profits never seem to be mentioned.
I do believe that's what it used to mean at one point. And it wasn't just a livable wage as in "well, you won't die," like it meant something. Now, it's simply the lowest amount these companies are legally allowed to pay you w/o using loopholes.
Chris Rock said that Minimum Wage is your boss telling you that he wants to pay you less, but IT'S AGAINST THE LAW!
