Honestly you don't or you'd understand it's too low. The entire point of a minimum wage is it's supposed to be the minimum amount a person needs to make to survive as businesses will do everything they can do pay as low as they can. It's the floor and shouldn't be a poverty wage which it continues to be as people like you say we can't possibly do anything to help people.

That drives people to corporate chains, shuttering local businesses whose employees end up working for minimum wage for the corporations. That’s how you end up with an entire state on welfare and SNAP benefits

Notice how that's already the case in most of small town America, to the point large corporations train staff during orientation on how to get it.

This is why go higher and force them to actually pay.

Then again you only want the bare minimum so what's the point of trying to convince you of anything

It's barely enough in the poorest state, how is that acceptable to you?

Just to show how bad it is, in today's money if it's a family 17 just 2 dollars over poverty wage of 15.

best we can do is $8 an hour

So it's already barely enough now so we shouldn't want it higher in the future?

As someone else I saw put it. wouldn't you need to be drunk to either deal with Rubio or after interacting with him

I'm worried/curious if macron would try to pardon her or find another way to allow her to stay in after he ran to them for help after the last election

Probably trying to work out how to blame it entirely on the ones being treated as shields.
