Employers can't pay an employee more than that employee produces, it's bad business. That being said, increasing minimum wage will lead to 1 of 2 consequences. 1. Employees get fired and unemployment sky rockets. 2. Consumers pay high prices for EVERYTHING. I don't like minimum wage and it's not becuase I think it's too low.
