As of my last update in October 2023, the federal minimum wage in the United States has not been raised since July 24, 2009, when it was increased to $7.25 per hour. While some states and localities have implemented higher minimum wages, there has been ongoing debate about increasing the federal minimum wage. Please verify with current sources for any recent changes beyond my last update.

That depends on your country. In Australia, for example, the Federal Minimum Wage was recently raised to $15.51/hr (given current exchange rates, approx $16.23 US). In America, I understand it is roughly half that.
If the minimum wage is raised, more people who are not currently working will be willing to work for that wage, increasing the supply of workers. Also tend to hire less employees at higher wages, causing a lessening of demand. The combination of less demand are more supply could cause an excess supply of workers at minimum wage jobs, which tend to be unskilled.
