pay the workers a decent minimum wage and they'll earn enough to pay income tax

the hoped for effect is likely devaluing the assets of the rich in hope of a relative shift in value to those making the minimum wage. i thought i'd already said that

Improved productivity doesn't mean increased demand... so since 3 employees can now do the work 5 were doing before they can lay-off a couple of people and still meet their demand. Great idea! depends upon how long those couple take to get work. remember the process will take a few years. the extra wages the others now earn will come round/be spent a lot faster than it does from the banks

doubling the minimum wage over a few years starting $7,9,11,13,15 to possibly $17 won't lead to a price/wage spiral
