[quote=Anonymous]So here's the thing: I've heard from lots of well-compensated white servers that work at trendy places that they are against this. Why? Because they make well above the proposed $15 minimum. But ya know whose voice hasn't been heard? The vast majority of low paid restaurant workers - often Hispanic. Theoretically, the restaurants are supposed to make up the difference between tips and the current minimum wage. But in practice, this doesn't happen due to an almost impossible enforcement burden. Plus, many restaurant employees don't want to rat on their employer for fear of retaliation. The $15 minimum solves the impossible-to- enforce mandate that is plaguing the current system. I'm still undecided and I'm voting tomorrow.[/quote]
