If you make it a living wage which in some cases it should be, then other prices will go up and therefore is it a living wage then?
I have been trained and working in my role for over 20 years and someone starts out on a wage not much less than mine. Yes you need a minimum wage, but stop increasing it. small businesses can't afford it. I work in healthcare.

Minimum wage should be nothing more than an opportunity to provide someone who otherwise wouldn't be working to get them working not a means of living. It also serves as a way for small business to employ labour without making it unaffordable.
Consistently increasing the minimum wage will only increase the living wage as inputs to create products will increase
