What about the guy that started at $11/hr and spent the last three years working his way up to $16/hr? Does he get a $4 raise?
Or does he effectively get a $5 pay cut? Because with a raise in the minimum he’d be making less above the starting point, $1 above opposed to $5 above before the change.
No one ever talks about that guy.

Good point. Now that the unskilled greeter at Walmart is making 15, what do you pay the HVAC technician or the cop who was previously making 14.50 (pretty accurate numbers for my po’ neck of the woods)? I guess bump them up 7 bucks an hour as well?

I have tried to explain this to many people but they simply do not "get it."
