I have no idea what you said: This message is hidden because GrantMercury is on your ignore list. However, based on your past rhetoric I can certainly imagine.
So I will thusly reply.
You think your intentions are more important than the actual consequences. How comforting is a $22 minimum wage to the man who can't find a job to save his life? Making $7.25 is better than making $0 an hour. If nothing else, consider the absurdity of the situation in terms of liberty: a man says "I will happily work for $5 an hour" and an employer says "I will happily pay you $5 an hour" and the government steps in and forbids this?
Concern for the poor blinds you to the harm done to them by the very policy you advocate to help them. If good intentions caused only good results we could easily solve all the problems in the world. Unfortunately, that is not the case.
