There is a radio talk show host here in Seattle who pressed the proponents of the $15.00 minimum wage on this issue. Why not $20.00--$30.00--$50.00 an hour?
They simply dodged his questions, changed the subject or tried to laugh them off. At some point they just refused his calls to be on the show. I think they sense they can only push the issue so far.
Anyway, we have a $15.00 per hour minimum wage being phased into place here in Seattle now. I guess we will see.
