    When the election comes around and it turns out that the dem candidates in Florida and NC don't support a $15 minimum wage, the same person will tell you that you're basically a fascist if you don't vote for them

      Yes but see if you vote for the blue guy who doesn't support minimum wage I can go to brunch and if you vote for the red guy who doesn't support minimum wage I can't. Won't you think of the brunch?

        State min wage is not same as federal.

        No reason to make big deal of supporting federal $15 if its already being moved to $15 by the state.

          That also means a $15 fed wage would have no impact in Florida as they would already have that minimum wage. If anything, it would prevent other states from undercutting Florida.

            Yea. But FL dem candidates will rely on campaign donors from outside the state who aren't high on federal $15. And there won't be a constituency in FL to hold them to it, since it's already "won" in the state.

            I'm not saying its impossible that the FL candidate supports it, just that its not a given.
