We interact with Albert Mohler's take on the minimum wage, urging the use of the Bible when actually developing a biblical worldview. Do we listen to the Austrians? Do we appeal to utilitarian arguments? Or shall we go to God's objective Word?

“ Great Sermon! ” I have a friend who owns a successful one to two crew landscape company.He told me that a $15 minimum wage would kill his business. He's been at it for 14 years.All his employees love him. (Including me. I worked for him one summer when I was in high school.) He's generous and takes good care of you, he just can't realistically pay you that much.The flip side is that he can't hang on to employees long term because he doesn't pay as much. Not that he's a bad boss, he just can't pay that much. And the employees have to support families.Here's the problem with the other side of the issue. They have to have higher pay because of artificially high prices and an artificially high standard of living. This is because of government involvement. So more government involvement won't help.
