$15 x 20 hours = $300
$8.75 x 40 hours = $350

Better off making less but working more hours

If I worked half as many hours I could then just go for a side hustle or part time elsewhere since the businesses would still need people there during business hours and beyond.

That's the exact opposite of being better off.

Alot of people would take the higher hourly rate but less hours job though. More time to enjoy other aspects of your life.

I love how it means your hours would be cut in half exactly. Like even in this completely made up B.S. hypothetical situation if you instead make it 25 hours you're suddenly making more and working less.

Not even getting into the fact that I'm sure most people would be content with working half the time for $50 less if it meant they got to do what they wanted with the all of the extra time they now have.

You mean paying people more without increasing the value of the work results in less hours? Crazy

If I could get paid roughly the same as I do now with fewer hours needed, that be fine by me.

I work to pay bills and in order to do what I want.

eh, as much as i'm a critic of doubling the federal minimum wage, making more hourly while working less hours is arguably better - can work other jobs, or invest the spare time in other endeavors

the biggest victims of wage mandates (in this day and age, anyway) are small businesses

Yes then people would have less problem working two jobs. You see two part time jobs at 15 an hour would be more money then one full time job at 8.75 an hour.

Whoever doesn't live in California or New York is lucky financially. Being able to buy a regular house for $120k or a mansion with $350k or less or even rent with 1-2 br at $500-$900 for a decent place in a decent neighborhood.
