There is no such thing as minimum wage.
And the labor is not coerst in a free market. You have the freedom to work for whoever you want to work for in the US. No one is making you take a bad paying job. No one is forcing you to work there.
You do know that not everyone needs to work a full time job to pay for their needs? So you just gunna take away all of their opportunities? A grocery bagger is not meant to earn a livable wage working 20hours a week. Because he lives with mom and dad and goes to school. A Walmart greeter is not meant to earn a living wage. Because they're retired and on social security already and physically can't work more than 20 hours a week. Raise minimum wage? And what will that accomplish? Just more inflation. You think you can make companies pay their employees more and make them not raise their prices too? Just a big fan of socialism huh?
