Only for real capitalism, which has no Government expense.The real Minimum Wage is $0.Your version only works in right wing fantasy.People who want more work for it.No, we don't. We have a First World economy not a Third World economy.We need low wage jobs. Where do high school kids go to find work in the summer time? Minimum wage was never meant to be a "living wage". That term was never around until recently. It's total propaganda. You also haven't addressed the senior citizen on social security that can't afford to eat out. That means less business, which means fewer jobs. It's all co-dependent.Yes, it does; we will be shedding low wage jobs, to do it.
Higher paid labor pays more in taxes and creates more in demand.
People who are happy with their current status keep working at their current level.
See how it works?
A fifteen dollar an hour minimum is merely a cost of living adjustment for Labor to help pay more in taxes and create more in demand as a "sustainable business practice".
We need to shed, low wage jobs; they are not productive enough and are a drag on our First World economy.
