Wouldn't raising minimal wage just raise prices higher without dealing with the underlying problems?

Prices are already getting higher, and we don't have other solutions.

In Australia, minimum wage is quite high and so are the costs of many goods, but things like Amazon and flight tickets are much cheaper comparatively

That doesn't answer my question. Prices might be high, but when you just give people more money, they will grow higher. Why wouldn't they?

That's just greed. They're doing that already. Prices right now are crazy high, BUT guess what else is? PROFITS. Record profits everywhere. That shit should be illegal.
