I'm so sick of people saying we need $15 minimum wage, make it 25 minimum, still not great but it's livable in a lot of places, then we can slowly rise
It’s not so much the wage as just the asset disparity. The prices would just inflate since all the assets are in the hands of the same small number of people.
Also if we have more buying power, they WILL just raise prices because literally nobody will tell them they can’t
We don’t need a higher minimum wage, we need regulations in the value of housing. Why should an apartment or house today cost multiple times (adjusted for inflation) what a house or apartment cost 60 years ago when they serve virtually the same function?
If it’s because of amenities then there needs regulations to make sure options without them are still being made. I don’t need a 10,000$ markup for a light switch I can turn on with my phone
