minimum wage laws leave people with minimum skills without opportunities. No one can be employed at a job worth only $6/hr if the minimum wage is $8/hr.
There are jobs worth less per hour to anyone than the legally mandated minimum wage. How do those jobs get done?

@redredred Interesting, so grocery stores, will have to cancel grocery bagging jobs, and people will be told to bag their own groceries. Restaurants will fire wait staff. Your Amazon orders will be unfilled, because the company would have to fire all the people who were making less than $15 per hour.
In reality, none of this happened in Washington State.

No. There are jobs that are not worth $8/hr. Often, these days, those get done by simple machines. Only the manufacturer of the machine gets paid and only once. No one gets paid after that. Already counter help at McDonalds is disappearing. That was once an entry level job that taught people how to hold a job and meet responsibility. Minimum wage laws destroyed that. Leftards call that progress. @Pikachu
