26. What does this have to do with the post under which you're commenting?

Generally speaking, when you post a comment under another one, it should bear some actual relation to the comment under which you posted. If you wanted to talk about your own subject, you need to post enough actual replies to other people first, and then you'll be given the ability to post your own 'top level' comments.

As to your question, no idea, but I'd guess that most unionized places already pay better. If they didn't, all of those union workers would be quitting to go work at the places that now pay $15/hr.

(Edit: Yes, I do see the $15/hr part, btw. I just don't feel SeaTac has much relation to McDonald's workers in NYC.)
