That's not true at all. You can't have a price floor, have businesses create their models based on that, raise the floor, and say "well if you can't pay your workers what we say NOW then you fail"

They can fucking pay the works exactly what the worker agrees to. If no one agrees, then the business fails.

this sounds like a nice fantasy, but it's not how things work. if businesses are having trouble getting people to want to work there, they can import foreign workers and pay them less than minimum wage. the business isn't any worse off for it.

businesses just have too much power over workers and over prospective workers.

jfc some people don't know anything about anything and still spout off like they do


I hate both of your responses essentially equally
