Time after time after time, modest increases have led to very few layoffs. 15 dollars is not a modest increase.
Yes its its done gradually because its a fact that increasing the min wage leads to fewer jobs, in doing it this way the damage is less obvious (hidden)
And most only see the obvious (as your doing here) and ignore the jobs (and start-ups) that are never created due to wage laws.
Why would anyone believe a person talk about "jobs" etc., when she has NEVER held a job other then as a politician and in academia?
She has NO REAL world experience in business.
She is the picture perfect liberal.
No experience in the fields she is talking about but knows EVERYTHING about it.
You cant debate the points she made so you divert to attacking the individual, evidently Harvard thought she had some ability in economics. So tell us where she was wrong on McDonalds, tell us why a 4 cent increase on a $7 meal is unsustainable.

She is wrong on McDonalds and Trump is right! That is the reality that is beyond your thinking. Businesses only pay more when they are forced to pay more to get the employees they need - supply and demand. If there is a way around paying more; they will find that way. They will turn to automation; like so many are doing today. Or; they will hire illegally, under the table, to make ends meet. Warren, as a leader of the left wing; wants to open our borders and outsource everything - thus creating less demand for legal immigrants and our citizens. American workers are attacked enough without her 'help'! We do not have to be attacked on two fronts at the same time.
While you mention Harvard; tell us how Harvard advanced her because of her claim of being a Native American Indian? Tell us of the true Native American that was overlooked because Elizabeth felt she could take advantage of a program meant to promote Native Americans and other minorities. If you were the one that did not get into Harvard would you feel the same?
