You perfectly make the point that the true minimum wage is $0/hour. Raising minimum wage has often reduced the number of jobs, often creating black markets of cash workers who often compete directly against people not allowed to legally work in US, further depressing wages. The real question is if a worker and an employer agree to a pay rate, why do you get to call it "underpaying"? Are they not adults, ostensibly free to live their lives how they see fit?
