    Clearly we should make the minimum wage $1000/hour. Then we'll all do even better.https://twitter.com/DavidMRolf/status/736246091910242304 …

        the one thing I think everyone should be able to agree on at this point: either we should raise the minimum wage or eliminate it

        True, but I think everyone has always agreed on that.

        or lower it to $1/hr, then we'd have no unemployment...

        going to $15/hr would drive investment in automation, and if we think that's the inevitable end-game, best to get there first.

        there are many better reasons to develop automation. Speed, scalability, safety, consistency etc.

        well, that’s a simplistic and dumb take on the case to increase the #minimumwage.

        it's better for the government to subsidize current wages? Right now minimum wage employees have to get government assistance.
