Zillionaire @nickhanauer.bsky.social and @goldy.horsesass.org: When we proposed a $15 minimum wage in Seattle, we were laughed out of rooms by serious, progressive economists. It violated the iron law. Raise wages, lose jobs. Basic supply and demand. Except: that iron law turned out not to be true.

"This is the pattern everywhere you look. When a bank makes a bad bet & it pays off, the executives keep the winnings. When the bet goes bad, the public bails them out. We privatize the gains and socialize the costs, and we've built an entire economy around that principle." @nickhanauer.bsky.social
