This is why you do not want the government dictating an hourly wage. The market will decide that. If you're worth $15 an hour and you're only getting paid $10 someone will steal you from that employer.
I don't know about you, but being offered to make the same amount of money per week and working less hours = win to me.

Your article says the staffers are limited to working 42 to 43 hours a week, which is still full time employment.

I don't see the problem. What am I missing here?
