I am sure the same arguments were made back then for burger prices, Walmart stuff and so on. The reality is that Seattle apparently has set a $16+ an hour being as the minimum hourly salary and that means no one should work for less. End of story. Working for Uber [or insert other corp here] and still needing to apply for food stamps, free healthcare and rent assistance costs taxpayers too.
