Ok moron..let a Longhorn explain it to you. This is what the equilibrium market will look like without a minimum wage. Lets assume the current equilibrium price is $4 an hour.



This is what happens when you introduce minimum wage of $5.15 an hour.





OK GOT IT LIBERAL? See the arrows that indicate how many people get the shaft because of your minimum wage? See what happens when minimum wage drops below the equilibrium? I'll tell you what happens, nothing. So there you go...nice colorful pictures..easy to understand...none of that hard algebra to worry your mind.
Either minimum wage does nothing (and helps nobody) or some people get a raise only at the expense of others getting the shaft. So...if your in a union...you get a pay raise...if your not in a union...you get the shaft...see how the entire thing works?
