"In reality, this does next to nothing to lift the company’s nearly 200,000 part-time workers out of poverty. “If they start at $21 an hour, at 3 to 3.5 hours a day, you’ll have to work 2 or 3 jobs to make ends meet,”
On what planet is someone working 3 hrs a day expected to be able to afford a place to live and pay their bills? What an asinine thing to say.
It’s also worth 19 years there is a quote about the cost that the strike would have if it were to go through. Every time people try to say these kinds of things we need to point out that not striking has a cost as well. All of the money that those workers should have been making, that’s lost income. Now you want to tell me which is more? I think we know which is more.
