The Minimum wage in 1960 was $1.25, with Inflation, the minimum wage should be close to $15.00 an hour.

More liker $9.50, not $15. People who hate the minimum wage need to get rid of all illegals and the other impediments to small business operating without government interference first which will either prove or not prove that they're right about reducing taxation and removing regulations will lead to rising wages along with rising profits or or they're never going to make their case.
Especially not the case for no minimum wage as opposed to one that doesn't rise based on the whims if Congress rather than being readjusted based on the past three years average inflation or some such.
Periodic, not annual, increases based on the inflation rate removes it from the political scam arsenal which is the first thing that has to happen. After that, like I say, the purists who think there's no reason to have a minimum wage should do what it takes to dismantle other obstructions first.
