If this has an effect that causes other businesses to pay people a living wage I'm all for it.  I don't really care how people make there money I do believe you should make more money with skills than without them.  As far as saying flipping burgers in NYC is an easy job i'm not sure that is the case anytime I have ever been to any of those stores in the cities it was absolutely slammed at all hours. 


This country needs more options on how to develop skills and do meaningful work.  College is not getting the job done in that aspect.  Trade schools probably need to be more regulated to keep the high cost down


We need to get back to having a large skilled work force instead of a bunch of scheming worker bees looking for a handout.
 

It's not that flipping burgers isn't hard work, it's that there's no shortage of people capable of doing it because the skills required are minimal. 

 

And having a large skilled workforce is pointless when there's no skilled workers needed.
