Some minimum wage people will lose jobs.

no, b/c (1) those spots need to be filled and (2) max, MLE, etc. player salaries are also based on revenue/% of the cap

min salaries don't even typically count against the cap

Correct.

Teams have roster holds equal to the minimum contract if they have less than a certain number of players (12) under contract.

In addition, the league treats a veteran minimum as being the league minimum for cap purposes despite a vet minimum for a 10 year vet being about $3m as opposed to $800K.
