Many people who won’t work for $15 an hour will for $20 If the government allows it.

The government set FLOOR on wages not a CEILING. You are delusional, again.

There have been many instances of governmental prohibition of price and wage increases. Where have you been?

Minimum wages are poor policy when the demand for labor is low, when employment levels are at a peak the minimum wage is surpassed by market determined wages so it becomes irrelevant economically.

But, like tariffs, they are politically driven.
