I am a bit confused - is this an argument against paying a living wage?

Are you saying that Starbucks will be the only remaining business able to pay a living wage?

Or that society simply cannot bear the price of paying it?

That the livable wages make business impossible?

Or that the coffee must stay at $2?

Do you think there are easy answers to all these questions? The point is there are various intractable problems, the outcome of which is less mom and pop shops.

Why do you assume the GP is making an argument towards any kind of action?

It looks very clearly a statement of fact to me.
