Idk I would say if a small business can’t afford to pay their folks 15/hr they probably shouldn’t be in business
I'm still just blown away at the stupidity of this comment.

Are people really worried about small businesses when it comes to $15/hr as the minimum wage or is it more because after all those years of building cabinets or fixing toilets you're gonna be making as much as a 16-year-old kid flipping burgers at McDonald's?
Sad.

Another dumbass comment.
Eta: funny thing about your dumbass comment is not only is it dumb, but you also admitted that you think minimum wage is for fricking kids.

Nah not at all. I think everyone deserves a livable wage so they can get food on the table and a place to live. I think younger adults have an opportunity to get ahead and help pay for college etc and not have to struggle as they set out on their own.
I don't have a problem with the minimum raise rise at all.

At $12/hour they go hungry? What about $13.50? $14.25 and college is off the table? Is $15 in rural Mississippi = $15 in NYC? Does COLA mean nothing anymore?

The skills aren’t worth 15 bucks just like flipping burgers isn’t worth 15 bucks an hour.

I think they'll end up making it above $15 in states that have a more expensive COL. Sure, some states might be able to afford some food and rent or live with the parents at $10-$12 an hour, but don't we want these people to be able to buy those necessities and then save for college or save up and do more to boost the economy? Giving someone just enough to survive is never the answer.

Don't we want? Sure. But at what expense. And the fact that it really won't help them much, but really just pull more people down, it's retarded.
And you're post is still really dumb.
