Elizabeth Warren: Why Isn’t Minimum Wage $22 an Hour?


Pocahontas might want to take a class on economics or maybe start a business of her own to figure out why minimum wage isn’t $22/ hour. Where exactly are businesses suppose to get that kind of money btw? To offer that kind of pay businesses would have to cut their staff by probably 75% to afford such rates.

This is about equal/ economic justice, progressives like Warren want the person on the bottom of the ladder to be making as much as the executive who gave blood, sweat and tears to either get to the position they are in or literally start the business.
