I dunno about that. But I'm pretty sure a lot of people will be very fat and happy to live on a $15/hr. job, knowing they can never make less than that, no matter how low they perform. All they have to do is keep from getting fired. It was a long time ago, but I can remember when I thought a $30k/yr. job meant I was rich. Lots of folks are still on that rung of the economic ladder and don't plan to climb to the next one.
