    Good.

    Move out of the way for employers willing to follow the law.

    Also side note, why don’t they already have a minimum wage mandated by nationwide law?! Do people not get basic human rights over there? What the actual fuck is wrong with these people?

    If you took away our minimum wage we would topple the bloody government, and that’s coming from England where we hardly get excited over anything. But, that would be an unprecedentedly evil, evil thing to do, with gigantic wide ranging negative effects across the whole nation the likes of which we’ve never seen.

      We do have nationwide minimum wage. These companies get around it though because they drivers are “contract workers” not employees of the company. In every meaningful way, this is bullshit. It let’s them not be required to pay the workers though.
