Even though the next paragraph puts the NY living wage at $12.75, someone should ask this asshole that if he believes in a living wage why his employees aren't earning even the $12/hour.
Quote:Travis said the decision to raise wages in New York is premature. "A debate needs to take place about how to tackle income inequality," he said.
What's to debate? Pay your fucking employees more. Jackass.
Wouldn't paying everyone too much be a problem too? You can't just start paying everyone what CEOs make, right? Money would lose it's value and we'd be back where we started.
How much people get payed is not really the problem, I think - it's the means to live that need get more uniformly distributed and made available.
What I'm basically saying is how current societies and economies work is the problem, really. We should work for other reasons than making a living. It's only when this initial problem goes away that we are able to truly work, efficiently, creatively and so on.
The state should provide us with sufficient resources to lead a normal life and we should strive to make it even better or work for the community at large on our own, unincentivized by a need to feed our own families and provide them with comfort and shelter.
