Senate and House Democrats have introduced a bill to raise the minimum wage to $15 an hour by 2025. Thoughts?
This must be passed — it's impossible to live on the current $7.25/hour wage. One study shows bringing the minimum wage up to $15 would bring 1.3 million people out of poverty.
This would be a disaster for small businesses, even if it's an incremental increase for a few years.
There needs to be some compromise — big businesses and chains should pay their workers more, while there should be exceptions for small, family-owned businesses.
I'm concerned about inflation — maybe employers should have to give their employees better benefits, rather than just more money.
This is not an issue I care about.
