There are a lot of businesses that barely make enough for the owner to make a living. For those, "lower bottom line" isn't an option.
Those sound like failed businesses that should close down if they cant function without exploiting their workers.
I did not edit my comment to add the "or close" after this comment was made, it was there from the start.
But that should be my choice, not the government’s.
That's what I said about the flaming pond of gasoline in my front yard.

(My point being, it'd be a lot more interesting if you listed some specific reasons you think minimum wage is bad regulation, rather than just protesting it in general terms)
