Representatives from the Maine Service Employees Association are demanding the state pay its workers a minimum wage of $15 per hour. They are right to want a living wage for workers at the bottom of the labor market. For too long employers under-cut the bargaining power of American workers by importing foreign workers through the many visa programs, and recently through the so-called refugee programs. The owners of capital – landlords, business owners – have gotten rich by flooding Maine communities with strangers, destroying social capital and culture.
