I'd say a minimum wage of around $15 sounds reasonable for any sort of trained work, $12 for untrained work. Don't say we can't afford that, we easily can, we just choose to make more millionaires billionaires. Ask yourself, do you want a downward spiral on wages so your country can remain competitive on exports until the competing countries adjust their wages downward so they're competitive again or do you want a strong demand for your products at home.

Good companies pay well, if your company doesn't, find another job.
Minimum wage is a massive flaw in western capitalism. It's no longer necessary, just like unions are no longer necessary.
