This is a completely separate discussion. I originally refuted your (completely asinine) quip about people who "do the minimum and be rewarded".

The rest of your comment is social-darwinistic horseshit based on nothing but prejudice and ignorance. Good day.

I was poking at the fact that a lot of people want to give $8/hr workers $15/hr minimum wage.

What does that mean for all of the $12/hr workers now? What about the $16-$17/hr workers? Do they get raises too?

Do we just flat out raise all wages 50% overnight?

Society values X jobs at $8/hr. Bleeding hearts value them at $15/hr. Where's the middle ground?

Please don't be a sealion. It doesn't make for productive discussion. Disagreement is one thing, but aggressively peppering people with questions until they get annoyed with you is not conducive to mutual understanding.
