9:53Now PlayingCalifornia could lead the way in the fight for a higher minimum wage as an $18 minimum wage ballot initiative could be placed on the November ballot for citizen voting, but only if we pressure Gov. Gavin Newsom enough to put it on the ballot in the first place. In total, California workers could see a total pay raises around $6,000 annually, with an estimated total of over $62 billion going to workers instead of corporations. Cenk Uygur and David Shuster discuss on The Young Turks. Watch LIVE weekdays 68 pm ET.

"Earlier this summer, Steven Martinez made a promise to his two young kids: He’d finally take them to Disneyland, the “happiest place on Earth.”
But Martinez, a customer service specialist in Los Angeles, didn’t feel the magic when he saw the price tag.
“Just for one day in the park and one night at the hotel, we were looking at over $1k and that didn’t even include food,” he says. “I had to explain to the kids that Mickey was out of Daddy’s budget.”
Most families across the country can relate.
In the 1950s and ’60s — the so-called Golden Age of American capitalism — family outings were within the realm of affordability for most median income earners. Many blue-collar workers could afford new homes and cars and still take their kids to Disneyland."
