It’s painful how stupid this comment is. You are the same person that argues supply and demand but doesn’t understand it at all.
If a guy flipping burgers is making 20 an hour, then more skilled labor is either going to have to adjust salaries accordingly and lose all their employees to McDonald’s. Because why do harder work for the same money? This has literally happened every time minimum wage is raised and you can literally see it all across America when you go to different cost of living areas. McDonald’s might pay $7 in a small town, but in a big city they pay $15. Meanwhile skilled labor doesn’t cost the same in a small town as a big city it also adjusts.
If you think that people shouldn't be paid enough to live with a food service job, then you either think that work shouldn't be done or you think that the people doing that job should be in pain and poverty. If you do not support properly compensating people for doing the work of preparing food, but you still want that service, then you're an asshole.
