The Destructive Farce of $15.00 Minimum Wage & Melancholia

Forces with ulterior motives continue to lead the lambs to slaughter.

Leveraging a mentality that things are "owed" rather than "earned" in America, unions and their agents along with those that still think Thomas More's Utopia is an ideal society are pushing for a minimum wage hike to $15.00 an hour - more than double the current rate.

Protesters are framing the issue that corporations are part of a public domain and naturally they should share in their good fortunes.

Moreover, corporate greed results in employees being their victims rather than victims of personal mistakes. There are higher paying jobs out there, why aren't these workers applying for those jobs?

The fact is, most fast food workers have cornered themselves into uncompetitive positions in the job market where better skilled workers make more money.
