UPS drivers making more money will help all workers make more money.
Labor united helps all labor. Rising wages is not zero sum.
Don't fall for 'divide and conquer' rhetoric from the Establishment. They fear the power and influence of worker solidarity.
The bosses have convinced you that there is barely enough money for people to get by, that if UPS drivers get $40 an hour, someone you know who is now making $20 an hour will be pushed down to making $15 an hour. That someone you know making $10 an hour will be forced to accept $7.50 an hour.
This is bullshit.
There is plenty of money.
ALTIt's just not going to the people doing the work.
It's incredible to me that these supposed businesspeople don't understand that paying your employees more makes your employees happier/more satisfied, and happier/more satisfied employees are much more willing/eager to do a good job and are much more loyal, thus making everybody more money and everything better-off.
That is to say, even the most selfish individual should be happy to pay their employees more, but they're too fucking stupid to understand that, it seems.
Surely there's no other explanation, because it's pretty fucking clear.
They're not stupid.
Sure, happier employees are more productive. But they're getting plenty of productivity out of miserable, frightened employees - we have big changes in tech and software that allow for profits to climb even when workers are too stressed to do their best, or even their second-best, most of the time.
Happy workers have the energy to think about things other than "how am I going to survive next month?"
They have time to notice, "hey, why am I scrimping to save to pay for mac & cheese for my kids, and my boss is attending $1000-a-plate political dinners?"
They have the spare attention to notice that "we passed laws against discrimination--by race, by gender, by orientation, by religion, etc." does not mean that discrimination ended. They can realize that "stop litter!" and "recycle your soda cans!" are not doing as much to help the environment as reducing car usage by supporting public transit would.
Many workers are stuck in very cruel job situations.
The cruelty is the point.
Because if they weren't facing crushing cruelty and scrabbling to survive...they'd notice that the big problems that face society, are fixable.
And most of those fixes are "take away power from the people who like to crush other people."
...And they'd have the time and energy to do something about that realization.
The fight against raising the minimum wage isn't about wages or what companies can afford; it's about keeping the majority of the US working class on the edge of panic and starvation so they can't organize to make changes that would throw out the plutocrats.

I used an enby pride flag in league (which gives you a little flag trail behind your character) and someone said to me:
"What are your pronouns so I can insult you properly"
thank you scherz et al. for bringing us the frogs Mini ature, Mini mum and of course, the Mini scule
Glad to see we made one scientist very happy
The Ring: If I had a quarter for every time a hobbit picked me up, I’d have two quarters.
The Ring: Which isn’t a lot, but it’s weird that it happened twice.
Of all the bearers of Sauron’s ring, 4 of them were hobbits.
I was wrong. It’s 5. Not 4
The lineage of ring bearers is as follows.
I love how Deagol counts as a ring bearer even though he had it in his possession for all of like five seconds
He held it for the rest of of his life!
[Image description: Tweet by @banalplay saying “but something happened then that the ring did not intend. it was picked up by the most unlikely creature imaginable: a hobbit, the same fuckin thing that just had it for like 500 years.” End Image Description.] Link to original here. Otherwise reblogging for the final rb there, which made me cackle.
From the ring’s perspective:
1. Home, the finger of my creator and other self.
2. Well, I don’t like it but I can work with this. Cause some trouble, get some revenge, find my way home, this is fine.
3. What the fuck is you?
4. Right personality, wrong species, I don’t know what you are but I hate you and I don’t know why you’re so resistant to my powers.
5. NO NO NO there are goblins everywhere how did I find another one of THESE horrible things. This one’s even more resistant than the last one and also disgustingly nice. I suffer.
6. Listen, I’ll cooperate, just get me the fuck out of this hellhole full of small cheerful people my power doesn’t work on properly. No, not like that. I hate you. Please stop.
7. FUCK
8. (Frodo again) I still hate you with every molecule of my mortal form but at least you’re not number seven. Think I’m starting to get through finally.
9. (Smeagol again) YES it’s you I actually missed you now get me back to the Master and NO FUCK NO I HATE YOOOOUUUUU…. *fzt*
you CHAIN The One Ring?! you chain it like the prisoner?! oh! OH! trauma! deep psychological trauma for hobbits for One Thousand Years!
Heh. :)
