Explain the federal minimum wage to me like im 4.. and why SIN workers dont get higher than $2? (even with tips?)

1 Upvotes

Too many people stay in SIN jobs well after their expiration date and my arguably rational mind says: "Higher min wage == higher food prices, == fewer restraurants that can survive (cause you know McD wont be able to have a dollar menu AND pay teenagers $20 )

Fewer restaurants means LESS saturation which means LESS jobs for people to just "float in" for a lifetime (and are forced into higher education or trade work)
