What you're going to see is a net negative impact on the folks which are supposed to be benefited by the increase on wages...lower cost services/goods will increase in cost, minimum wage jobs will decline, and more employers who hire minimum wage employees will find new ways to eliminate workers and or make better use of smaller staff....instead of government subsidizing a piece of their livelihood you will see a larger portion of folks just out of work and on 100% assistance.
Nope. In fact, the opposite is far more likely. Decrease in people needing Assistence and an Increase in Jobs. Just not initially.
This path has been gone down before, it has resulted in Net Benefits every time.
