Best Answer

Statutory minimum wages are utterly unrelated to fairness. Such rates are literally arbitrary - there is no reason the MW is $x instead of $X +$1. And arbitrary is the opposite of fair.

Also min wage is proven to price unskilled, low-skill, high-risk young workers out of any rational labor market. The kids WOULD work for less than the MW, but employer cannot let them - unfair to employer and worker.
