Here's the thing though Little Joe; if an employer doesn't pay a man enough money to eat and feed and house his family - then the government ends up subsidizing the worker.

1 - Most minimum wage workers are not the sole earners in their household. Many of them are dependents.

2 - If you price those who are not dependents out of a job, the government ends up subsidizing them even more, when the go on unemployment, then welfare.
