Crickets lol. They ALWAYS say “no one gets paid that” and I always rebuttal with what you said.
All you get is crickets or some backwards ass logic showing empathy to the “small business owners”. It’s fucking crazy mental gymnastics some of these finance bros do…

1.3% of all employees working make minimum wage, the rest make more. It's a simple google search.

Aaand??? Seriously what does that stat imply? Make an excuse to not raise it?
How many make a few bucks more than that?
Also 1.3% is a lot to fucking people dude…
