The best argument for raising the minimum wage to $15 comes from @JoeBiden: No American who works 40 hours a week should live in poverty.

And what's this Neo-Liberal Shit Sandwich gonna do for the homeless where ~40% work?
Do you know about inflation and M2?
What if raising minimum wage to 15/hr cost jobs, and acts as a catalyst to automation...
He literally plagiarized that from Bernie Sanders lol. Does Biden have even ONE original thought?
$15 an hour by 2026? How many jobs that we (barely) have now will have been ravaged by technology & A👁️ by 2026? No vision for the future. Just wait for the unfathomable fallout that's just ahead as the desperation of the multitudes mounts.
Are you aware that every single week almost a million people file for unemployment? Even before that, many needed 2 or 3 jobs to survive. That is a serious problem no one talks about
$15 isn’t enough but it’s at least a start. I only worry that people receiving gov assistance (esp Medicaid) will no longer qualify so all the extra income will go towards those expenses, leaving them back to square one.
So we can finally get rid of this horrendous tipping culture?
Is there no such thing as a starter job anymore where an 18 year old learns he has to show up on time, be nice to customers and can't look at his phone all day?
Won't it kill small business?
