If someone else is willing to do a task cheaper than you it’s not the government’s problem to solve. Illegal immigration is one of the few problems that it is the government’s job to solve. Address the problem of illegal immigration in a way that doesn’t insert the government’s nose into how much money I choose to work for. It is none of their business. If it is, when are they going to define what a “maximum” wage is? A federal definition of what is a minimum wage helps states where the cost of living exceeds this wage and hurts states where the cost of living is lower than this wage. The Fourteenth Amendment says we must all be treated EQUALLY so a federal minimum wage is unconstitutional on this basis alone because of the variance of effect it has on the economies of the states individually. A minimum wage of $15.00 per hour has almost no effect on most northeastern states but puts a huge burden on most of the rest of the country business wise. Sorry, this is NOT equal. It will not fly.

Yes! I think that brilliant statement of yours should be the GOP campaign 2020 slogan and it's main meme:

"If someone else is willing to do a task cheaper than you it’s not the government’s problem to solve."

I am sure the GOP can take all 50 states with a campaign slogan like that.
