Seattle $15 Minimum Wage
Dueling studies on the same wage hike.
C · 15/24
1 · The idealist case (in its proponents' own framing)
Raise the floor to lift low-wage workers.
2 · The realist counter-case
Critics cite hours cuts.
3 · Predicted vs. measured — with caveats
UW found reduced hours for some; Berkeley found wage gains without job loss - methods diverge.
4 · Liberty check
Worker floor vs. employer/worker contract freedom.
5 · The real tradeoff
Genuinely contested evidence.
