Of course.....show the results of an increase in minimum wage not a mindless argument against it. Basic economics would say that if spending stops; revenues, profits, and job numbers drop also....

Last time I checked, basic economics told us that if something costs more then buyers will buy less of it.


Only if the spending is discretionary. Employees are not discretionary for a business of any size even if the owner is willing to work 24/7.

Since you failed at basic economics, do provide us with some actual facts backing your statement up.
