Safeway is a business. Not a human being.
Just because a vulnerable person allows you to take advantage of them, doesn't make it ok.
If you can see that your employees are struggling to survive (and on $15/hr in Silicon Valley, you can about guarantee that they are) it would be in your best interest to give them a raise. But most of all, it's the human thing to do.
We don't have to live in a world where everyone is angling to squeeze every last drop from everyone else.
