    I can’t imagine the series of incidents in your life that led you to draw such a wrong conclusion and yet call it logic.

    You’ve really never heard the phrase “race to the bottom”?

      I’ve heard the phrase, yes. I don’t base my philosophy on whether clever-sounding phrases exist.

      There’s no evidence to suggest that lack of a minimum wage results in everyone earning essentially zero wages, which is all I can imagine that phrase to mean.

      There is, however, evidence that minimum wages lead to unemployment. There’s also evidence to suggest unemployment is a horrible state to exist in.
