Would higher minimum wages increase prices and reduce employment?

Would a higher minimum wage encourage companies to use robots?

Are Americans able to comprehend that being $3 per hour is more than being jobless and being paid nothing?

Why should that government tell you how much money you should make?

Should Burger King ask the government to raise the minimum price of hamburgers to $2 because McDonald's hamburgers cost $1?

How would you feel if you wanted to buy a car for $2000, but the government said cars must cost at least $3000?

How would feel if you wanted to sell your home for $100,000, but the government said the maximum price for houses is $80,000?

If a magical decree can make countries rich then why doesn't Liberia set the minimum wage at $100 per hour?

Singapore doesn't have a minimum wage, but Singapore is wealthy.
