In the military, off base landlords raise rents every Oct when pay raises are given. Same in the civilian sector year round when wages go up. Increased wages force businesses to raise prices. It's a vicious circle.
Here's the bottom line though.
A small business isn't going to pay $20 for a teenager that has no skills or maturity. The stepping stones for teens have been eliminated. Now every adult thinks they deserve even higher wages to afford inflation.
All the while teens and these younger adults have Never had to learn work ethics and motivation to better their selves out of min wage. That leads to a larger divide yearly of the haves and have nots.
This is the only correct response
