This is a battle they will not win. After all..... even if they win.... they will lose.
It's fairly simple..... if we force private companies to pay a wage that is above what the market demands, companies will be forced to employ less people and fire folks that might normally be needed and employed.
And even worse.... If the minimum wage is inflated, companies will raise prices to accommodate the new wage thereby raising the cost of living and making the new wage less valuable.
It's self defeating to fight against the free market.
