If they took away minimum wage, you'd see more jobs pop up than you've ever seen. Service and customer service would be the best you've ever seen.
My only problem with Crypto is that it's all computer programed. Therefore, if you internet or power go out, you are pretty much screwed if you are a regular person. One reason why I still like cash, gold, and silver. Cash is far lighter to carry than gold and silver. The other issue with crypto is that its just too volatile right now. If you sold a lambo 6 months ago with Cypto. You'd be down atleast 40% on the crypto you traded for. It needs to be far less volatile before it can be a reasonable currency. Just my thoughts on it. I realize we need to get away from the Fed. But we need something similar to current cash, just backed by something real like gold. If we went back to the gold standard. Gold and silver would boom where it should be. Atleast it would slow this crazy debt we are printing right now.
That would give people incentive to work up to better jobs. Minimum wage jobs aren't meant to be lifetime careers. I started at minimum wage, moved up to a higher position, moved on to a better paying job, and then to a high pay office job that I retired from.
I worked in a store. I rented a small house in the country. I owned a car. I bought the latest 45s every week, as well as books and magazines.
People are spoiled now and want too much. You can live on just a little, if you adjust your desires. If you don't have much money, get a mobile home. A used one is as cheap as a used car. I bought one back in the 80s for just $3,000 and lived in it for three years. I drove a used car, only bought retreads for it, and I ate cheap food. I also learned to use coupons. There are many options for those who choose them.

Wouldn't taking away minimum wage allow for those businesses to pay peanuts for these jobs?

When you worked minimum wage, what was that like for you? Where did you live, what was the job, etc?
