Default $15/hour good for workers? Real life in Seattle shows different.

We've all heard the NDP mantra that $15 an hour is necessary to lift people out of poverty.

Many have said that it just won't work.

Well, real life experience in Seattle, which has a $15/hour law, shows that the latter is true, and in fact, the wage requirement has hurt people who need the help by a ratio of 3 to 1.
