There's been such an unacceptable erosion of wages and benefits for the average American over many decades, particularly for low-income citizens. It's well past time to right that wrong.

(89,252 posts)This is why gradual increase is best . People are more likely to support it.
Not sure how Biden's plan works but Florida's recent one will increase a certain amount each year until it gets to 15 .
I know we should have had 15 long time ago but you do have to consider ways to do it so it would actually get support .
In the long run Biden's putting the 15 minimum into his plan will do more than the stimulus .

It's one sneaky way to tax capital gains.
Anyway, thanks for sharing.
