I love how sub $15 wage workers are the new Cadillac driving welfare queens because they have a cell phone plan.
It's interesting to watch American workers throw each other under the bus and then complain about income inequality and lack of opportunity.
Honestly this is where I think the right should take a new tactic - agree to the $15/hour minimum wage but only if at the same time you repeal Davis-Bacon Act and invalidate any union contracts from tying to the raised min wage (e.g. contract stipulates that if minimum wage goes up, union member wages go up by the same amount). If the left so badly wants to pay a high school kid $15/hour to serve their skinny vanilla latte then have at it but that will be the end of it.
