But is $15 enough? This is a complicated question. I don’t fault organisers for picking this target, at all, because they needed a specific number, and they knew that aiming too high could result in failure. Pick a more reasonable rate of pay and people will laugh you off the field, compromise at too low a rate and you won’t accomplish anything. Finding a happy medium is extremely challenging, especially when organisations you might think of as allies turn on you as you force through minimum wage laws.
