I've got a friend who works at a company that set a $15/hr minimum wage. The sales people, janitors, etc all got a $5 to $7 raise. The more qualified people got a raise of less than a dollar, or no raise at all. Anyone making more than $15/hr was furious to see entry level people basically get a huge raise for nothing while they got hardly anything.
$15/hr wage is meant to demoralize and spread communism. People think all wages will jump $5 to $7 an hour, they don't. It only lowers the gap between highly qualified employees and the lowest.
Wait until you see people who were making $15 or $20 an hour get their $15/hr min wage and the lower jobs that used to pay shit are taken by lazy and stupid diversity hires. They are going to be absolutely furious. One of the big reasons they are cracking down on "white supremacy" is so they can call every successful white person racist when Tyrone shows up to fuck up his entry level job for $15/hr and they're not happy about it when they have a college degree and make $20/hr.
