I'd support getting rid of the minimum wage in exchange for a robust UBI.

I would be willing to swap out FMW for

- Passing Obama's union bill
- Repealing Taft-Hartley
- cutting highway funding to states that outlaw cities over 300 000 from passing their own minimum wage ordinances
- Change the Wagner Act to allow for management-workers' counsels
- Nonexempt every worker making less than $24 an hour/50kpa or is in an OPM occupation where the median wage is under $36 an hour/75kpa.

That is pretty good. Republicans arguing about the COL differences between locales is really disingenuous when they really just don't want a minimum wage anywhere.

Pretty much and it would basically be the perfect con law case that would force the SCOTUS to make a drastic choice on whether there is actually a freedom of contract or some substantive due process on property rights that supersedes the commerce clause. Will they overturn WCH?
