Minimum wage isn't just for the young anymore. Many older folk are also on minimum wage. Also, many people (youth and adult) need higher wages in order to help pay for college or living costs.
The state has no right to go in and tell folk that they have to pay more because of someone else's bad financial choices. And besides, it's not like they'll get 1.15$ a day just because the minimum wage is removed.

Depending on the menatality of some people, the wage could drop to $1.15. Regardless, the wages for some jobs would drop: it just depends on how much they would drop. Also, the government is to "promote the general Welfare." By keeping the minimum wage, the govenment is ensuring that people can buy a sufficient amount of goods and do not become homeless on the streets.
Hire a delegation of economists who actually know (better than everyone else) what they're talking about, and let them handle all it, as long as they have data-backed proof.
Where do you stop, though? A president may be a Jack of All-Trades, Master of None, but in theory there is always somebody always better than a single human being, and he could just hire a team of experts for EVERYTHING. Imo while listening to your advisors all the time somewhat works (GWBush did this and his term actually isn't as bad as people make it out to be - he was a huge idiot but he knew he was so he tended to listen to his experts, compared to less proficient presidents who think they're all that) it takes away character, and since this is only a simulation, not a country, we won't see the results of your "experts" and character is most of the game.

This still is relevant Juq. This isn't a country, it's an election simulation. Listening to your experts might build a good country but arguing for what you believe in is the point of this, and to just say "I'm right because experts are smarter than you" really detracts from the fun.
I offer myself as candidate for the Liberaldemocratic wing of the Green/Socialist Party. I vote in favour of Xapy, tough I will not support to not support Israel. I am fine with abandoning the CIA and the NSA, but for abandoning the FBI I have to oppose Xapy, as the FBI still is useful unlike the CIA.
