I have seen a positive impact on the minimum wage employees on a day to day basis, those who maintained their hours (because the business would cease to function if any more were cut, from what was left from last year's cuts).
Some of the people coming at this issue from a theoretical standpoint forget (or never knew) what it's like to need an extra 40 dollars a week to keep themselves away from the food bank.
