If they raise the minimum wage I am not sure it would even affect many companies as it doesn’t seem they pay many people it anyway
It would only affect small buissnesses. Those that could least afford it. It would but people out of work as many of these would have to close. Its hard enough for them to compete already.

Neither could even find jobs that paid that low. There are not that many minimum wage jobs out there especially if you work there for some time
You are not meant to be able to survive on a minium salary job. Its entry level. As you said I dont think anyone here works for the minimum wage. You start at 8 dollars an hour at Micky Ds here. Another thing 5.65 is a lot more in say Arkansas than it is here in New York.
