Isn't there a huge conceit that that's who earns minimum wage? Looking around my local wal-mart, it would appear many people first entered the job market at weird times in their lives.

Walmart's starting pay is $11 now, so they aren't even at minimum wage anymore.
Walmart actually pays considerably more than minimum wage, so I'm not sure what point you are making here.
I see now that changed recently, though I didn't see any demographics shifts in who are being employed.

And you know exactly the point I was trying to make.
