I think it is important to do what makes sense.

"doing nothing reminds me of "thought and prayers" after mass shootings."

Getting none of an $8 increase instead of all of a $4 increase reminds me of a quote about not letting the perfect be the enemy of everything.

Inflation calculators are all over the place and they tell us anyone who's giving the minimum wage is starving his workers and has been doing this for decades. How many elderly people were working fast food 10 or 20 years ago. Things have changed. We're much poorer as a nation because of this nonsense.
