    That’s complete and utter BS. Spain has risen the minimum wage from 735€ (2018) to 1080€ (2023) and unemployment has gone down. And if the raise in minimum wage is the reason you have to close your business you weren’t having a benefit on your customers but on your workers. And that has another very different name.

      I’d say if the customers were buying what you were selling, then it was of benefit to them too

        That would be a benefit FOR your customers. A business has to benefit FROM the customers, not from the workers.
