When they successfully pushed to increase the minimum wage in Arizona, they kept showing and talking about single minority mothers with kids, even though most people earning the minimum wage are 25 or less, without kids, and living with their parents.

People kept telling me they would happily support the 75% of people that did not need the raise in order to help the 25% who had kids, but no job skills.

That is their decision. I want people to get job skills.

This seems to support much of what I just wrote: https://www.bls.gov/opub/reports/min.../2017/home.htm
