      1. Literally just raise the minimum wage to a living wage. It's not hard. Nothing about """basic economics""" makes this impossible. How the fuck do you argue for a living wage in 2012, but in 2021 it's impossible without unemployment and inflation spiraling out of control? @SocDoneLeft/1354286151226503168

      The minimum wage should be raised, by degree, until it is a living wage. That wage will not be $15/hr in 2021. At the bare minimum adjust the $15/hr wage from 2012, which would be ~$20/hr by 2021.

    This is fucking insane why are "socialists" unironically arguing about this? By this fucking logic unions shouldn't demand higher wages either because prices will go up and companies won't hire more people. Christ
