I wonder what that $15 per hour will do to their government benefits?

nothing! minimum wage is not meant to be a living wage. Sure they may feel "rich" at first but in time that $15 will be worth the $8 they are currently making. So the government will still have to give them assistance.

Some will just work less to still receive their government benefits.
