What do people think of $15 min wage? What effect have you seen in those places where the law is already starting to change?

@Richard Schneider,

Well they haven't done that in my area but I think it is counter to capitalism, free market, free enterprise, etc. My thought process is if you think they are not offering enough don't take the job, if you are worth more get a promotion or a new job, and similar concepts. I would think supply and demand could handle this issue, if I am looking at 5 similar jobs and 4 of them are offering between $7-9 and one is $15 then obviously I would want that one, but so will everyone else. Clearly that one business owner will have his pick of the best employees which will help his business grow. The other business can become competitive or continue to struggle at the bottom. What do you think about it?
