      or maybe it's an indication that compensation is paid with a basket of goods that includes salary, schedule flexibility, corporate culture, location, etc. A mom w young kids in elementary school might love a 6 hr/day job across the street from the school w other moms @ $9/hr https://twitter.com/FahadMAlam/status/1350527808057982976 …

      2/ also, note that minimum wage laws don't actually eliminate ALL work at less than the cut off ; charity volunteering at $0 exists ...but the actual world of employment is not crisply bifurcated into doing well and doing good ; it's a sliding scale, and it overlaps

      3/ You can work at a company selling science textbooks at any wage over $15/hr ...and you can work at a company selling Catholic textbooks at $0/hr or at > $15/hr kind of odd that you can't semi-volunteer at a semi-firm

          5/ so you're saying that people who WANT to work for $9/hr (e.g. moms with school age kids, who prize flexibility) would be happier, and society would be "improved" if you were able to legislate their jobs out of existence? How, exactly? https://twitter.com/FahadMAlam/status/1350533930231840768 …

          6/ also, follow on question: you'd prefer that a business that can afford $9/hr wages but can't afford $15/hr SHOULD go out of business (see top of thread). How does that "improve society" for the business owner and everyone else? Are we all better off w him at Walmart?

          7/ ok, so "work" is either "needed" or "not needed", a boolean? there's no sliding scale, where someone might STRONGLY want to work at X wage and SLIGHTLY like to work at Y wage? and a follow up question >>> https://twitter.com/FahadMAlam/status/1350534890983342080 …

          8/ If a mom who WANTS to work at $9/hr, but doesn't need to is laid off (bc you've been elected president and can interfere w her private decisions), which items in her household budget should she cut? Annual vacation? Or do you have a different preference on what she cuts?

          9/ question for @FahadMAlam: since @Kenneth_St_Cyr is earning less than a "living wage", and yet somehow WANTS this job, when should be be laid off, and what part of his household budget should he cut? (I'd ask @Kenneth_St_Cyr, but you know better)https://twitter.com/Kenneth_St_Cyr/status/1350535321864310787 …

          I'm a machinist. I could make more than double what I'm making now in "retail". But my job is .6 miles from my front door, and its a tradeoff I made and accepted.
