The point I'm making, is that the economic cost of the price increase (which is the argument made against minimum wage increases) is far less than the tangible quality-of-life benefits to those 3.3 million workers. I'm for raising the minimum wage BTW. Because the pros (better life for those workers) far outweigh the cons, especially from an economic standpoint.
