In California, fast food workers wages will go up to $20 an hour we found today. That's more than some college educated people make. Something is wrong here.

This is the correct take. Unfortunately, there seems to be an overwhelming sense of "fuck you, I got mine" amongst a lot of people meaning they'd rather kick other people down than get pushed up.

Your right. Wages should be going up across the board, not just for fast food workers.
