Daily Clips: April 15th, 2016
What follows the Fight for $15? A pretty good secure scheduling writeup in the Atlantic — if you haven’t heard our podcast on this subject, listen here! Love that last line: “With luck, and with an honest effort by both business and labor to come to a consensus, Seattle could provide a model to the rest of the country.”
Bernie, Pope Francis, and the Moral Economy: Two old men discuss the purpose of the economy in increasingly unequal times.
No, a $15 minimum wage won’t kill businesses: Sorry trickle-downers, the minimum wage doesn’t destroy the economy. (Yes, I’m even looking at you, Vox)
Video of the day: Very effective political ad from Bernie Sanders. Not something I say often.
Tweet of the day:
