I tend to agree with this as well. One can envision a system in which minimum wage is tied to a cost-of-living index and is updated every 5 or 10 years. A pleasant secondary effect would that this would incentivize large employers who don't want to pay high minimum wages to lobby for/otherwise attempt to attain lower costs of living for the general population.
