I applaud Bernie for his persistence but, as we saw with Amazon, it is nothing but a photo op for these companies. Amazon agreed to the $15 an hour pay but it was nothing more than a bait and switch. Those who received raises ended up getting a cut in the bonuses or stock options. Most hourly workers will now get LESS. But hey, Bezos looked good agreeing to it. Wal-Mart and other companies will get around this if it ever did pass which it won't since the corporations run the politicians.
