Calling it "minimum wage" seems like a marketing gimmick. I believe Amazon finds themselves needing to raise wages because the other large employers are as well.
In other words, the unemployment level has finally dropped far enough that employees start to feel the benefits of competition. This is good news for lots of people, but not really a paradigm shift.. ?
