Is Fox news unironically the best place to learn about your new favorite social dem?

Yeah it just sounds ridiculously high in low cost of living areas where Fox’s faithful all live.

They really do hear this as “look at this outrageous tax on small business owners” instead of “oh look a living minimum wage - that would be good for Timmy when he graduates high school next year.”

Sure, that's how we got here, but that's not even true anymore. The most destitute and depressed regions still have a higher cost of living than the minimum wage would provide.
