>I'm always bemused by the arguments against minimum wages, they almost always boil down to "My business can't survive unless my employees are living in poverty." which, in reality for a lot of businesses, is "I won't be as profitable if I have to pay a living wage".
There are some jobs that don't create $15/hour in value. Why is that hard to imagine? Minimum wage dictates that those jobs and the products they provide will not exist. Whether you think that's a net benefit to society is another question.
