That would only happen in the real world.

Also there is the old 'differential' issue. That is where those below or above any new minimum level would also want pay increases to restore the differential between them and other people currently on lower pay levels to them. A supervisor/foreman/manager would not want to be earning the same as those they are responsible for.
