Even business executives favor raising the minimum wage

See this article citing leaked information from conservative spinmeister Frank Luntz's organization. Therein the polling shows that 80% of business executives support raising the minimum wage, with only 8% opposed. And yet Republican legislators, chambers of commerce and conservative organizations are all still opposed to it, claiming it will cause Armageddon. And of course the facts have proven them wrong time and again in those places where the minimum wage has gone up, even to $15 an hour.
