The important stuff:

I hear all the justifications offered by the politicians. Higher
minimum wages means more employee loyalty, happy employees, and an
increase in business creating more jobs. Wonderful sounding story but
a bit of a fairy tale to me.


No, it's true. But the loyalty goes to the ones who got the higher minimum wage, not the employer
who's forced to pay it.

Loyalty results in votes.

Everything you say is true, but it's at too much depth for the average minimum wage earner, or FOAD,
to understand.
