I hear this all the time from people resistant to change. I recently moved to Quebec from Missouri, USA. Quite a big difference in the minimum wages.. IIRC, it's $7.25 back home.
... there's nothing here that's more expensive than back in MO. In fact, mostly everything is cheaper except milk(would have to ask the wife on that one).
Also, anytime the minimum wage being increased is mentioned, one side mentions doom and gloom and everyone will die and starve and be unable to afford anything. It hasn't happened ever.
Must be bullshit.
