Bentway,
Such a logical argument, Dave! Have you ever heard of the straw man?
A straw man is a fake argument that someone sets up just to easily demolish it.

What is fake about the whole "living wage" argument? It forms the very core of support for raising the minimum wage.

Raise the minimum wage to $15/hour, and people will still complain that it isn't a "living wage," especially here in California where the cost of living is so high and about to be much higher thanks to this "living wage" nonsense.

The only reason why you call it a "straw man" is because you can't defend your own arguments.
