If all employers are forced to pay higher wages, then faced with the same additional costs, they can be expected to raise prices, distributing the cost throughout society. Which raises prices for the guy who's on the edge of poverty in the first place. Thus, having "society" cover his ass, which in turn raises prices, which in turn puts more people into poverty. It's an endless cycle that is a wet dream for the socialists. In the end, you get the majority of people depending on the socialists in power, which is exactly what they want.
