Union wages are tied to the minimum wage (2x, 3x, etc.), so what you describe will automatically happen.

And unions are the real reason there is a minimum wage. Union wages on federal contracts are tied to the minimum wage. They don’t give a rat’s behind about poor, entry level workers. In fact, they also use the minimum wage to keep people who would work for less out of the work place.

People are nuts to think government can wave its magic wand and create wealth or value.
