You can’t have an open border and no minimum wage. That is a recipe for economic and social suicide.

I agree. The truth is businesses that don’t pay enough to live on are being indirectly subsidized by the government, in the form of food stamps, section 8, EITC, etc. Those allow low paid workers to live and go to work at jobs they where they couldn’t otherwise. That’s why the Chamber types are fine with both welfare and open borders/amnesty.

Separate issues. Minimum wage has no affect on illegal employees. They work off the books and don’t pay taxes. Underground economy thrives on casual employees.
