Fox News host Jesse Watters was ridiculed across media outlets this week after he grossly miscalculated the annual salary of people earning $20/hour.
Note: The state of California just raised the minimum wage for food industry workers to $20/hour.
The larger message communicated by Watters was that he thinks individuals working in minimum wage jobs should be paid less, because their position does not require any skills.
I have a few thoughts in this. Shocking, I know.
