Remember this is an entry level warehouse job. Easy to say they need to be paid $20, very difficult to pay it.

I made $3.18/hr my first real job. Netted perhaps $105-110 a week (I think it was $107 actually, but grey matter is dying ). Going to an inflation calc online I see that's equivalent to about $7.15.

I blame rich people like you guys 'Rich' is relative.

$3.18 an hour was a lot of money back in the Cro-Magnon period. Maybe what we need to do is find a way to time travel the entire planet back to the days when everything was affordable and you could live quite comfortably on next to nothing, provided you could take down a Mastodon with a pointy stick.
