Mind = Blown people think $25/hr should be minimum wage.

What's the thought process of these people thinking McDonald's workers and Door Greeters should get $25/hr? What happened to working your way up?

It's common sense this will kill a majority of small business. Prices of services and goods would have to drastically increase for business to stay above water.

And big business will just lean more towards AI or robots.

Around here McDonald's is paying like $19/h.
When it comes your time to die, be not like those whose hearts are filled with the fear of death, so that when their time comes they weep and pray for a little more time to live their lives over again in a different way. Sing your death song and die like a hero going home.

That's like 40k a year after taxes (good luck surviving) and working your way up is a thing of the past. You need to job hop every few years.

They probably aren't working a full 40 hours.

I was making $9/hr at Walmart. Got a poverty degree which put me at $15, then $42k, $52k, and finally at $59k. Job hopped to make $83k.


Why not get a trade? A ton are retiring and it doesn't have to be permanent.

Job hopping is working your way up, just going to new employers.

People don't get how this works


People making 20-30 dollars an hour get fucked the most


Brb been there 5 years making 24 dollars an hour, the new guy just got bumped from 15 to 25. Now you get bumped a dollar and make the same but have more responsibilities meanwhile every item you buy in town just went up in price to cover the new wages. Cucked


Brb you make 27 dollars an hour as assistant manager been there 10 years. Every stoner 18 year old now makes nearly the same as you and you ain't getting a raise this year since labor costs went through the roof

All other jobs don't get a raise

So why would you take out a 80k loan to go to university woke indoctrination camp to be able to make 35 dollars an hour if you can even find a job in this market when unskilled labor at Costco is making 28 dollars an hour the entire time you were in college and they just got a warehouse supervisor gig now they make 35 just like you with no student loans

Cucked

Massive high minimum wages erodes the middle class and gives most people below 110 IQ no incentive to even try. Their only hope is to have some mechanical aptitude then they can be a tradie

It's just arbitrary numbers. They think people like Elon Musk are worth too much, and therefore he should be worth less and others earn more. Regardless of whether or not the "others" are mongoloids.

Exactly I make around $21 as a first responder if this passes my pay would go to $25 an hour and the Walmart greeter who currently makes $13 an hour would make the same as me. What are the chances this passes?

Imagine what happens when you take away all the illegal labor who don't even get paid that much that entire industries rely on.
