So it does seem that the majority of voters don't care enough to increase minimum wage.
You can't just randomly pick an issue, see it hasn't been done, and conclude no one cares about it. Voting isn't that simple. And getting things done within the government isn't that simple.
But in any case, let's say you're right... there's nothing wrong with pressuring individual companies. Pressure, whether applied socially, economically (through boycotts), or legally are all valid ways of achieving a goal. Some of those may be more effective than others, but people should use whatever tools they have available.
- dkural 8y agoI agree with you that there is nothing wrong with pressuring individual companies. Totally agreed voting isn't simple! Also I tried to word my sentence carefully: I didn't claim no one cares; or that even the majority didn't care; just that they didn't "care enough" i.e. prioritize this to influence their vote over other issues.
