Comment on Bill to raise minimum wage to $25 an hour will be introduced in Senate
TheStaffmaster@lemmy.world 23 hours agoMinimum wage means nothing without a Maximum wage. Business owners will never give themselves a pay cut to give you a pay raise. They’ll pass it on to the consumer and then we’ll be right back to the beginning again. You also need to put an end to Capital Gains tax dodging through loans and stock buybacks. The Wealthy are using it as “free money” glitch and that’s what’s driving up inflation more than anything.

We should go through the effort of writing bills to do all of those things too. Pieces of it could get picked up in other bills as amendments. The point is not to just give up because you think putting any one improvement together is useless until everything is already put together nicely.
