There is NO STATE according to
http://www.epi.org/minimum-wage-tracker/#/min_wage/Washington%20D.C.
that today has a MW higher than $10.50... and that's not even a state, it's DC.
I LIVE in MA which now is the highest MW state, tied with CA. This is still BELOW that $11ish that represents the inflation adjusted 1968 MW.
So to claim that states that have raised the MW are doing better than those that have not... as an argument that my call for at least $11 is in favor of predatory employment is laughable. I await your condemnation of all those blue states you just touted as encouraging predatory employment. But I suspect you'll give them a pass.
