A "living wage" would increase business, because more people would

It would increase prices somewhat, for sure - but overall it WOULD
improve the economy.

I KNOW it will never happen in the "greatest country on earth" because
it's not "the american way"



I'm not convinced it would cause prices to increase.
Might actually (or eventually) cause prices to decrease.
Increased production does that.


Yyou think giving a raise across the board would increase production?

In the formula that works you give a raise after the employee has proven
to be more productive. Give a raise with out improved performance to
begin with and there is no incentive to do better.
