You're pretty sure raising the minimum wage is illegal?

  The original statement clearly implied government corruption. After all, those raising the minimum wage don't earn it themselves. Thus, they're not "using the power of the state to boost their salary".

    What I was referring to was trying to prevent people from making agreements that make it easier to keep their employees. Putting a stop to that would be using the state as a way to make more money. And, yes, those lobbying for something are a different group than those approving. But I bet if I lobby for something you don't like that gets implemented, I'd be responsible for it, if not wholly responsible.
