In theory, raising the minimum wage would cause prices of goods to rise and decrease the supply of jobs, thus decreasing employment rates. However, raising the minimum wage could also increase the purchasing power of lower-income people and provide a boost to the economy. This stuff has been studied, so all of the "in theory" stuff doesn't always happen, but I think in general a $15 minimum wage is way, way too much.
