I agree, but where would that scale go if there was no minimum wage?

I don’t know, but they are trying to raise it where I live to like $12/hour, a “sustainable” wage, where the person could buy a house and raise a family on a job a teenager can do. (You can buy a house here for $90,000) Totally out-of-whack to what businesses can afford.
