    $26 an hour would have negative effects on minorities and young people. Right now people with little work experience and education can easily still have a job. That would not be the case if the minimum wage was increased, since fewer companies would be able to afford to pay you $26 an hour to be trained

          Why not $50 an hour minimum wage then?

          Because the CEO wants to buy another boat, and in 'murica is legally allowed to bribe government representatives.

        They won’t have the money because nobody will hire them at $26 an hour

        You seriously think anyone from the street knows how to cook?

        Let me remind you that employees that are cooking need to follow health regulations

            That’s how you get people who don’t wash their hands after going to the bathroom. Yes, you actually need to tell people to do this
