what Part of. raising minimum wage. Don't they understand? that if you raise minimum wage, prices go up. your quality of life does not improve. Maybe improves for 6 months. till everybody raises all their prices to match the minimum wage. Then it's like you're making 725. an hour again.

Exactly right. $15 an hour just pushes the price of goods and services higher, including housing. This is making tent living a reality; I’m buying mine while I can. ⛺️

Now if we could just get outta control gov spending to stop inflation can go down.

Having a min wage of 15 is adding to the inflation. The powers at hand won't take any losses but the people will.
