Sure, just tell them that all burger flippers should be paid enough to buy a nice home and support a family and have a new car every couple of years. Then lament that you could not buy burgers at said establishment because the price would have to go up to say, $15 a burger (to pay for these living wages), and then when nobody else wants $15 burgers the burger joint will go out of business and the burger flipper will then have no income and without marketable skills the house will be foreclosed on and their car repo'd but hey, it makes you feel good about yourself for caring. And if they still squawk say that the wage isn't going to be 'living' if the living wage earner has to pay $15 for a burger, plus other inflated prices for 'living wage' goods and services, which means their money has been seriously devalued and they are back at square one. :-/
Good luck. It is axiomatic that people who are in favor of such idiotic policies lack the ability to comprehend rudimentary logic. I prefer to just avoid them like the plague.
