The article has reference to the minimum wage.

A rising tide raises all boats

Therefore, all wages will be forced to rise until the market can no longer support the existence of businesses and any wages

The correct minimum wage is $0.00. Any form of price controls is a completely unwarranted constraint on people’s right to make voluntary contracts. The original minimum wage was imposed to keep negros from competing with unions. Any form of price controls inevitably leads to lower productivity and less for everybody. The to improve people’s lives is to increase productivity, not suppress it.
