Good job defending the status quo.
A fully employed burger flipper will always be poor minimum wage jobs are entry level jobs not jobs to sustain a family, every job cant have a high enough wage to do so otherwise like I said before I'd work in a candy store.in all likelihood minimum wage will go up a dollar or two and raise every other year or so like it should. the problem is that it hasn't been doing so since Obama has been in office. Occur to you that in a negotiation you start high with your demands so that you have room to maneuver your final price?
No, doubling the minimum wage is probably unrealistic, but if the raise is a mere dollar or so it still leaves millions in poverty, even if they're fully employed.
