Yes of course... everyone's wages would go up if the government jacked the minimum wage into the stratosphere...
along with the prices that people pay for everything (because it is now burdened with a proportionally higher labor cost)
The net result being that everyone ends up with the same relative purchasing power they started with.
Government raises minimum wage.. inflation erases the gain.
Happens every time.
Its only value is political pandering.

Wait. Union Groc stores like Giant pay cashiers more than $15 hr now. Plus benifits. Safeway , Acme ( if you’re have one around ) and Giant all pay this rate. Teamsters. Hell down here Harris Teeter pays $13 and their not Union. So it can be done. Just in the right business

Not sure if you are serious or not w/that. Anyway, since it hasn't been done for so long, IMO that would do no good. I'd be in favor of raising it to say, $10/hr right now (which is where it should be) then every five years or so, check what the inflation rate has been and raise it again. Or, the CPI. Just do something. I really can't grasp why anyone that favors keeping it where it currently is would like to have had their own wages stay the same, while everyone else around them gets raises or at least gets a COL increase. Sorry, but I gotta give the ol' SMH to that thinking.
