Minimum wage doesn't address the real problem: unrealistic expectations on the part of business owners and an insane ratio between the earnings of the owners and the earnings of the workers. Fix that and you won't need a minimum wage.
Don't need a minimum wage, whether that gets fixed or not.
Does turn small to medium business owners against the left tho, middle class shifting to the right ftw.

It’s the only mechanism acceptable to the corporatocracy - mostly because it doesn’t cost them anything.

The alternatives involve pitchforks or socialism.
SJWs are a natural consequence of corporatism.

You wish, Millennial faggot, pitch forks will flee in the face of the national security state, socialism will be shot down by Gorsuch and Kanavaugh,

Indeed, a minimum wage is such a bad way to redistribute wealth that it's shifting the middle class to the right, but that seems to be the only real upside, and I'm sure that the lefties who support it don't see that as upside at all.

Virtue signalling fo sho, but at the same time the market wage is not actually that far below.

Min wage adds a couple bucks an hour.

Not much gain for the worker, not enough to make a difference.

Just enough to alienate the aspirational cohort of the middle class.

They’re not middle class though, and that’s the problem. People own landscaping businesses and expect to live in McMansions.

I liked my farmhouse but I didn’t pay poverty wages so I could afford it. And no one used to expect to live in an expensive house as a small business owner. We keep making the divide bigger and bigger and watch our country implode.

Minimum wage is not the way to close the divide, that simply exacerbates the divide. Pretty much every other form of wealth redistribution is better at exacerbating the divide less than a minimum wage would, yet lefties still counter-productively push for it anyway, despite having better wealth redistribution schemes they could support other than a minimum wage.
