So, if we leave the minimum wage alone, more people are able to work, but at pay levels that put them under the poverty line and in jobs where the security and advancement possibilities are few to none. If we raise it, those people experience more hardship for a year or so, a few jobs switch from small-business to large ones, but the end result is more money in the pockets of those working at that level.
