[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Imagine a daycare worker making a living wage. A home healthcare nurse and assisted living techs who have to get an education and deal with the physically glueing job of moving patients and taking them to the bathroom. Them being able to afford a life without food stamps. [/quote] And why do you think almost doubling the min wage will do that? If labor costs explode what do you think businesses will do in order to remain economically viable? They will increase their prices, so in the end a min wage worker's purchasing power goes nowhere. All you end up doing is causing a whole bunch of inflation, which is terrible for the economy.[/quote]
