Jobs should always be subject to the same rules of supply and demand that govern the rest of the marketplace. If somebody is willing to work less than you, there's no reason not to give them the job instead, which works for unskilled jobs. But for skilled jobs, I think our culture needs a bit of a shift towards the normalisation of pay negotiation. Either way what you get paid is up to you, don't like it walk out. If the minimum wage gets pushed up then the business will just end up outsourcing its work to Asia where someone is willing to work for a lower price. There are some businesses where you can't make a profit by paying everyone $15 an hour.
