Would you rather have that extra coin or not?

Oh yes big difference, come on, stop complaining!!!
If a person making $28,000/yr just got a $6,000 raise - that person just got a 20% pay raise. If a person is complaining about a 20% pay raise - then that person is just............huh...........I don't know - unusual? I'm not sure that many sane people would complain about a 20% pay raise. If you could be upset at that number - think how much the rest of the world ought to be upset with what USED to be considered a 3% yearly raise (after taxes that is)
