I worked on software that had a bug. I found the problem and thought I'd fixed it. Nope, the bug still appeared. I found another place and fixed that bug. Since the first one didn't work, I reverted the change. Bug is still there.

Both fixes were needed to fix the bug.

That's analogous to the issue of minimum-wate. There are two bugs. A group that should be able to earn a living wage but can't. Then another group that is somehow unable to work to earn a minimum wage.

Fix the second bug.

Sure, we agree there are two bugs, one is that they can work but not make enough to live well, the other cant work at all.. sure those two bugs exist, agreed.

Minimum wage fixes neither of those bugs.. it ensures the people who cant work at all continue to not work, but it also ensures the people who cant make a living wage now get fired since its illegal to continue to employ them at the value they deserve... so now you made things worse, no bugs fixed.
