LA raised minimum wage to $15

Somehow I don't think McDonalds will be happy to pay a crew worker $15 an hour. Do you think this was a good move?

    They're trying to keep up with inflation and the devaluing of their wages. $15/hour is worth less than minimum wage was pretty much since it was established in the early 1900s. $8/hour is worth less than half of the minimum wage in the 60s. What's actually been happening is people are being paid less and less for their work, and the minimum wage raise is only an attempt to correct that. A faulty attempt, and it isn't ultimately possible to correct, but an attempt, nonetheless.
