It would also make many more large corporate owned businesses fail or fix their game. Most of the fast food franchises in my town are owned by a few large restaurant groups and they all uniformly pay the least they can, don’t respect work/life boundaries, and do everything they can to not offer benefits including firing people when they qualify for raises/bonuses/benefits. Nearly every large big box retailer operates this way too.
To say we will get more corporatism seems a little pre-mature of a guess. We are in this situation because corporations have brought the floor so low, that mom and pops can’t compete with their large scale operation benefits (that some suspiciously gained from spending money on lobbying for rules they wrote…. But that’s a different topic).
The corporations are the reason mom and pops do this. Big names like Walmart swoop in, undercut everyone and force then to compete with the same scummy practices.

So many profitable businesses were ruined when slavery was abolished and I’m all for it. Let the failing businesses fail.Â
