This is what happens when you increase your minimum income to $25/hr. Burgers will cost $30.

Minimum wage was created to keep immigrants from being able to undercut native, white workers.
Glad to see nothing has changed, only now they call it "unions".
Only sort of. That still relied on the idea that whites, as a race, shouldn't do low pay work, despite that's exactly what plenty of poor whites and young whites need. (Along with anyone else)
White wouldn't need to do "low pay work" if governments were flying in turd-world immigrants by the plane-fulls into the country to drive down the price of labor to rock bottom.
No, you've got it a bit backwards. They drive down wages for higher paid work, not the low paid stuff.
They're actually trying to drive down the prices of blue-collar "low paid" work, but importing vast quantities of poor people and giving them welfare doesn't help with that, so Americans cutting your grass will absolutely run you $300.
Illegal immigration also sprung up to circumvent minimum wage.
