And no, keeping the minimum wage at $7.50/hr is not fair. The policies of the left are whole-heartedly behind developing a minimum standard of living, while also promoting education and development of human capital. The push for $15/hr is a representation of that. The push for free 2 year education is a representation of that (giving people an avenue to improve upon that $15/hr, if they so choose).
Are we now trying to conflate that belief with communism or some socialized "everyone should make the same amount of money regardless of education and development of high demand skillsets"?
