Minimum wage jobs are meant to be held by students and young people who have little or no work experience. They are not meant to support people full time. They're meant to be extra money while getting a degree or working towards a more sustainable job. If the minimum wage is raised to anything over $10 that is considered enough to live easy off of, more people will opt for these jobs as a career, taking them away from high school and college students who need a job like this for experience.
