Conservatives say raising the minimum wage would drive up inflation.

But the federal minimum wage hasn't gone up since 2009.

Average CEO pay has gone up about 60% since 2009.

Who's pay is contributing to inflation?

@rbreich We did it in México. Raised the minimum wage, 100% in real terms in the last few years with AMLO. Inflation is not up significamtly. It's doable.

@arstechnica YES ! We need planes that use double the fuel so a bunch of rich people can travel a bit faster on a cramped plane to arrive at a customs bottleneck followed by a land transportacion bottleneck. All in the name of grift an status.

@arstechnica You lost me at “Company”. Either state run agency or nothing. Space is not a commodity.
