low wages disincentivize innovation
If businesses don't do it willingly then regulate them until they do
The regulation:
They own the people who write legislation
The regulations are so bad because the landlords buisness owners smashed the unions and the organized left.
The only way we're going to unfuck the situation is by building up those institutions. So contact CWA and organize your IT job, and join the DSA. It's how we won the minimum wage in the first place, its how we're gonna win a living wage, paid sick leave, universal Healthcare, and more.
Because good regulations aren't handed down by congress, they're forced on it by the grassroots.
