They will most certainly provide a basis for a new priority that most certainly has the potential to offset the increased labor costs due to the minimum wage increase!
Maybe since theminimum wage concept has lost it's true purpose there will be another new level, or entry level or trainee level or pre minimum wage level that allows a company to hire those who do not need to be paid $15 and eventually have more of them and less of the big $ help. The entrepenurial survival spirit will kick in and find a way around paying too much for minimal training level work.....which is why it used to be minimum wage......which has all been forgotten.

What you say makes a lot of sense. Blanket doubling the minimum wage may be noble but a bad idea and work arounds would abound. One thing though, going five and ten years at a time with no raise in the minimum wage opens the door to these fixes.
