Democratic elected leaders get to decide a fair wage because they are democratically elected leaders.

In terms of motivation a democratically elected leader motivated by the interests of their constituents is a better Stewart of the minimum wage than an un-elected boardroom whose primary motivation is investor value not the quality of life of the citizenry.

When most of the people they're legislating don't agree with the law, then it's not so democratic. AB5 is not for the people.
