Minimum wage increases do not lead to price increases, this has been studied exhaustively.

Because they are consumers first, like most Americans.

It’s hysterical to think leftists got exactly what they wanted (won the minimum wage debate) and then turned around and complained about prices being too high. Tell me you’re a dipshit without telling me you’re a dipshit.

Yeah totally. You cracked it. The people whose politics revolve around redistribution of wealth to working people actually want them to be paid less.

This is exactly why I'm confused. It makes no sense at all. But that's what leftists (not all, not most) are out there saying. I keep asking: why are we now against unions and wage hikes? That used to be very important to us.
