I am supportive of higher minimum wages, but I think those who agree should recognize and accept that a business exists to make money. Where one cost rises, a business will find a way to reduce costs in other area. Be it lower quality food, less employees, or in this case, less attention to sanitary conditions. It's too bad a city can't take the radical, opposite step and get rid of the minimum wage all together. That would be a very interesting experiment.
