$15 an hour is not a lot of money at all. I'd feel very sorry for someone who was supporting a family on that wage.
I'd feel even worse for someone who hadn't figured out the value of a minimum wage job as a young person before they got tied down. How anyone could work for wages so low that they can barely support just themselves, if that, and not realize that they ought to be bettering themselves suggests a problem a lot bigger than what the government can fix via mandates. Of course, those mandates could seriously screw up some other important things that don't need a government fix.
