It kind of is. I'm not against a higher minimum wage...in fact I welcome it. But let's be honest, it's going to crush small businesses and force larger ones into automation. The real problem is that this cuts into the unskilled lifeline. Unskilled labor is dying, these people must learn a trade. I have no hypothetical solution for those unable or unwilling, sadly, outside of UBI which presents its own issues.
- neilwilson 9y agoTry creating jobs and pay people for doing them. Look around and you'll see there is much to do. It's not hard once you get beyond the mistaken idea that the private sector creates jobs. It doesn't and doesn't want to. It creates them only because it has to.
