RE: "They'll just raise prices if thy raise the minimum wage."

If you're going to consider minimum wage, you should know who makes it. In 2012, only 2.8% of American workers were at or below (e.g. waitstaff) the federal minimum wage, and half of them are under 25 years old.

http://www.pewresearch.org/fact-tank/201...imum-wage/

Any worker with a bit of work ethic will get raises and make more than minimum wage. Back in the day, I started at minimum wage at a gas station. Since I showed up when I was scheduled, I was better than most of the people they hired, and soon got raises and benefits. I had to work overtime to make ends meet, but guess what - I was young and just starting out and that's the way it is.
