It's a step towards Socialism. I don't think it would be available equally, therefore not a good idea.

People should be able to making a living wage. Homelessness perpetuates when people cannot make a living wage. This shows up in mostly red states that have not raised the minimum wage beyond $7-something in years. At least the states that pay around $15-18/hr. are trying to do right.

During the Pandemic it was claimed that people received more from unemployment than from their actual job. So why is it even a debate about raising the minimum wage? I will always believe that America's greatest resource is its people.
