They took 10+ years to finally implement the 15 dollar minimum wage, explicitly so it would still be too low to live on by the time it was in, so they can turn around and go and lambast people for being “greedy” after getting what they wanted…while willfully obviating and distracting from the shit like rent and home prices that are getting furthe and further out of the average americans reach.
Thats by design.

Who is the artist behind this design?
the cool thing about capitalism is that evil can be effectively distributed
Greed and money. Collusion can be ideological, not planned

Moving from nose deep in the septic tank, to chin deep, is technically an improvement, I guess.
There are tons of jobs around me that pay $11 or so. It’s above minimum wage, but you sure as hell can’t live on it.
