As I've written before, the existence of studies that seem to show minimal economic impact from minimum wage increases has caused many policy advocates to act as if we can assume that very high increases, like this one, can transfer money from the pockets of the affluent into the pockets of the poor without causing big disruptions. This is wildly beyond what that evidence shows, or could show. This is such typical conservative BS circa 2015. She cites an article SHE wrote [see link above] as justification that raising the min wage is a negative move either though there are studies that say the opposite. And all HER article that she cites says that in her opinion there is no real study that justifies raising the min wage..........AGAIN IN HER WINGER OPINION. Tim, this is shit work on her part; shit work on your part. You don't want to share the pie so you will grasp at any straw to make your case. Shame on you!
