For a time, til inflation eats the wage and your looking at another wage increase.(I think we are on our 27th wage increase) Its not a solution nor a good band-aid IMHO.
I'd also question the underlined, you lift nearly 1 million or so (using CBO estimates) and add 500,000 to social programs...This cant be the kind of progress we are looking for?
There is no easy solution, because those rich mofo's aint gonna pay taxes.
So your saying the rich dont pay taxes?
all he does is paraphrase the ideals of morons.
When will the left throw min wage in the bushes, and focus on collective bargaining and stronger safety nets?
The numbers speak for themselves.

You provide free healthcare from the womb to the tomb, free education from ABCs to PhDs (With stipend for students), robust social safety nets, common stipend to all from all resources of the land (controlled by the state), labor rights, collective bargaining as a fundamental right for business to exist, mandatory paid vacation and sick days, mandatory paternal/maternal paid time off, close corporate tax loop holes, raise taxes on corporations who relocate any major portion of their business overseas, environmental protection laws, campaign finance laws, and a well-kept and well-funded public transportation system...
and we can get rid of minimum wage.

So minimum wage is the sole determining factor behind unemployment?
I dont recall stating that, but if I did, let me apologize and say clearly, min wage is not the sole determining factor in unemployment.So minimum wage is the sole determining factor behind unemployment?
