ABSOLUTELY
.@RevDrBarber is right. No one should be forced to work 80+ hours per week just to afford a 2-bedroom apartment on minimum wage. #Raisethewage #Fightfor15

The modern problem is not with low wages, the modern problem is with human obsolescence. Agree with it or not, UBI has a rational modern basis, but the "fight for $15" stuff does not. Artificially increasing salaries for people is alcohol to sanitize a wound applied near a flame.

Corporations are getting into the real estate business, buying up apt buildings, condos, houses, and then turning them over to a property owner business. I think you are going to see families in tents during the next decade.

Did you know that Sweden, the country that Democrats like to tout as socialism's big success (even though they are not socialist, they are mixed), has no minimum wage? How come you celebrate Sweden's economic success, but you don't want their ingredients? Disconnect.

He may be right about affordability but the reason is policy which does everything possible to raise the cost of housing. California is a particularly egregious example of bad policy leading to high rent and housing costs. Housing should be affordable - min wage is poor solution
