Re: “So YOU like a higher minimum wage.”
No.
I like the way it completely destroys the purpose of our insane LEGAL immigration policy.
What good are 20 million low skill foreign workers if the law requires you to pay them $15 per hour?
That’s some round-about way to think about it: higher minimum-wages reduce the number of low-skill jobs in the marketplace (reduction of supply). Therefore, the number of immigrants will drop, as there are not jobs available for which they can be hired (do I have that right?).
I have a better idea. Stop government intervention in the markets through a mandated minimum wage AND secure our borders, allowing only those WE WANT to contribute to our society to enter and remain.
