$100 would not cause the problems your positing, it would cause other problems. It would create a massive disruption in pricing and pay rates. That argument is dead stupid. I'm not sure why you're doubling down on it.

Economists are not proposing massive changes, because economics is mostly about justifying current systems and getting paid by the wealthy.

My advice would be to take an economics class.

Back in college (undergrad not grad school). Even if you aren't currently attending college, these days there are plenty of universities who put courses on-line (MIT Open Courseware, etc.)
