Meh. I don't object to a $20 minimum wage because it's "too high" compared with a handful of CEOs. I object because it's high enough to price plenty of people out of the job market, and I don't think it's good for them or for society for them to spend life on the dole or working on the black market.

But I keep forgetting; working for free or cheap to gain experience and other advantages is only a privilege for rich kids...I'm sorry, "interns". The poor can take a hike.
