Force, you are using extremely faulty logic. First, minimum wage increase usually occur simultaneously to upturns in the economy where the unemployment is already low. Second, it takes a while for the effect of the increase of minimum wage to affect the market... you wouldn't see an increase in unemployment right away after a MW increase, it just does not happen like that.
Many economics agree that a minimum wage increase (especially a large one) will definately have a negative effect on the economy.
