    It’s crazy how we’ve had minimum wage for 90 years and people are still angry about it. It makes me sad that folks are willing to spend energy trying to prevent others from being paid for their work.

      Having shitty policy for nearly a century doesn’t make it magically good. People should be free to buy and sell labor at whatever price they want, not whatever price the government has declared acceptable.
