unions are going down the drain as it is, and as soon as people realize how much minimum wage laws will kill jobs, they will go to. You can't legislate jobs into creation... Yes China is killing is on cost of labor, but forcing businesses to pay more will only kill the small businesses that unskilled laborers need to survive.

Well no shite, Sherlock. The states have been busy passing laws to ensure this over the past several decades.

It doesn't. That's the problem with your argument.

That isn't what minimum wage laws are designed to do (and your statement is false).

McDonald's is a small business?

Who knew.
