According to Elizabeth Warren, it should. Do you agree with her?

i'd be more open to working a minimum wage job if wages were $22/hour. don't think it would be good for the US economy overall.

Armstrong's law states that a libertarian's reductio ad absurdum is eventually a liberal's logical consequence that must be implemented as policy.

Why not a $22 minimum cheesburger price? Every McDonalds, Burger King, Wendy's and Jack in the Box would shut down overnight. Millions of people instantly unemployed. What an economic boon!
