How can you be so callous to just stop at a $15/hr "living wage" when everybody can live like a king without any negative effects like higher unemployment? |
I believe the $15/hr figure comes from adjusting past minimum wages for inflation, not from out of thin air.
But yeah, continue with the condescension. It's apparent you have everything figured out.
