What do minimum wage supporters expect to happen with people whose labor does not produce >= $minimum_wage worth of value?

> whose labor does not produce >= $minimum_wage worth of value

Same thing we’ve been doing for other fields like software engineers - just pay them more.

AnimalMuppet•28m ago
I presume that was sarcasm, given how much trouble people are having finding software engineering jobs at the moment...
TheSamFischer•26m ago
It’s not the ability to find jobs. It’s the ratio of pay to value delivered.

Nearly every app or website I use today is broken, slow or hostile to the user. Show me the value for the pay.

I remember when Uber was cheap. Then they weren't and people went back to walking and cycling. Americans wouldn't get it.

Not to cast a shadow over this effort, but it sounds like rural Alaska could use some well-planned gov't programs to reduce the basic cost of living for everyone.

Is anyone here familiar, to comment?
