I think the difference is Im looking at it from the view of what is the systematic effect on the entire society. Evidence shows that where there is no minimum wage companies are able to drive salaries down and poor get poorer, standard of living drops. It shifts the balance of power in society towards those people who control the means of production.
Ironically I think that's the same approach the people behind Herman Cain's proposal are taking. It's not like they are standing on some principle of individual rights, they see it as a simple calculus for them as more money for their businesses, and less for workers.

- i would disagree as a whole not in sectors. i think more wages went up than down.********
