Advocates Admit $15 Minimum Wage ‘May Not Make Sense,’ but Offer a Glimpse of Motivation for Hike | TheBlaze.com:

"California Gov. Jerry Brown and other advocates of hiking the minimum wage to $15 per hour have conceded that the pay increase might not be the best way to help workers, causing questions about the sincerity of the “Fight for 15” movement.

“Economically, minimum wages may not make sense,” Brown told the Sacramento Bee before signing the wage increase for his state. The governor followed suit with New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo, who did the same last week."
