Devils Advocate here: remember the big push for $15/hr right before inflation took off? I remember the opposing side to that push saying the cost of living was going to increase due to such a large change to minimum wage. Here we are. Granted, a huge part of this is from printing money during COVID for unemployment(and people not returning to work….creating a huge labor shortage and massively unrealistic wages for unskilled labor) and the abuse of eviction moratoriums.
