minimum wage raises the living standard when increased

The minimum wage in France and Australia is much higher than the US and Big Mac's actually cost less. In Denmark, the minimum wage is $21/hr and Big Macs are $5.38---only 59 cents more than in America. Pass this along for the millions of Americans who believe raising wages will increase prices!
