The government lets in millions of immigrants a year so with no minimum wage it is a race to the bottom. Seal the borders and stop immigration and then we can talk.

I agree with you about illegal immigration. But using government law breaking as an excuse to end free markets is not something I or any conservative ought to support. Maybe without a minimum wage, protest against illegal immigration would be even stronger.

Finally .....

The government already heavily manipulates the labor market through the presence of illegal aliens and legal immigrants and guest workers

Supply and Demand works for labor too.

Then there's those increased taxes for the safety net which legal or not is freely used by illegals and immigrants.
