>1 an hour is not peanuts for minimum-wage employees, but it's not a life changing amount either

Who said it would be? Who thinks that min wage workers should all of a sudden make $75k / year?




When the phrases "partners" and "windfall" are bandied about with regards to those workers, I'd hope for wages that would allow them to work one job and support a family. That would be sufficiently life changing, IMO.


That's fair, I must have missed the 'windfall' bit
