“15 bucks an hour = Inflation”

If inflation eats away at the earning power of $15, better raise the minimum wage above $15.

Hardly. I went to local McD's and the sign says help wanted $15.00. So I guees everyone working their makes at least that. The menu prices look the same as then did a year ago, maybe slightly higher.

yep vicious cycle that never helps anyone other than the usual suspects.
these are jobs held by people under 25 with no kids or mortgage, etc. There is no reason they should be making a tone of money..these are starter jobs unless you’re the manager, or the chef in the case of a “restaurant worker”

I’ll say.

While in high school, I bagged groceries at 85¢ an hour (plus tips).
