Raising minimum wage only raises the minimum prices for things. Which in turn is like a pay cut for those that don't get raises.

Yep. The point also is that the increase is not uniform across the counties. Westchester and lower of course get the raise while the politicians in Albany keep wages minimal.
WE'RE GOING TO RAISE MINIMUM WAGE IN NEW YORK STATE IMMEDIATELY TO $15.00 AN HOUR... EXCEPT IN THE SUBURBS AND COUNTRY, WE'RE GOING TO PHASE YOUR MINIMUM WAGE IN OVER TIME.
