Wouldn't the effect of the wage stay the same? If $15 is going to cause job loss and price increases via min wage, won't it do the same if caused by the market?
Not at all because it's not across the board. Each market will determine what wage will attract workers.
What is going to be below garlic farmers? I don't see how the same people can call for doom with a $15 min wage, but then applaud it when the market reaches $15. Doesn't make a lot of sense.
The difference is between encouraging an economy where market forces lead to rising wages and better standards of living for Americans,
rather than using government force to make employers pay more when the economy does NOT call for it, and won't support it.
I understand the difference. Either way I don't see doom. But the right has claimed $15 would doom jobs.
What we claimed is that it would reduce labor, and we are correct. McDonald's and Wendy's are both investing in automation now. When you buy machines to replace humans, it does cost jobs.

So then the OP is bad news. Why can they afford to pay executives so much?

$15 would prevent many unskilled workers from ever getting a job.
It would cost other low-skilled workers the jobs they already have.

A farm has an "executive"?

You have numbers that labor has been reduced?

No because it's a relatively new thing that's taking place. But I would guess at least into the hundreds of thousands of jobs when all is said and done.
What I did find is that there are over 14 thousand McDonald's restaurant in the US and over 5 thousand Wendy's. That means there are 20,000 restaurants that are going to turn automated. Even if automation got rid of only five employees per outlet, that's 100,000 jobs right there.

Actually every industry- regardless of minimum wage- is trying to replace humans with machines.
At most- at the very most- increased minimum wage may have accelerated McDonald and Wendy's trend towards automation.
Automation will be happening with- or without minimum wage increases.
Depends on whether one is an adult or a child. Children need the Gov to run every aspect of their lives.

No because it's a relatively new thing that's taking place. But I would guess at least into the hundreds of thousands of jobs when all is said and done.

So you are just guessing. I don't see it working.

And I'm being very conservative with my guess. I don't know about you, but when I go to McDonald's, there are three to four girls behind the counter taking orders, and remember that those restaurants are not just open eight hours a day, so they have different shifts just like other businesses.

Look it up yourself "dupe" you're an idiot. Google is your friend.
The answer is a firm no. In states where farmers had relied heavily on foreign labour—a group that includes California and Texas—American natives found a few more farm jobs in the mid 1960s. But the rise was small and temporary; within a few years the long decline in agricultural jobs had resumed.

It is just guessing which has little value.
