Push it a little bit harder and you are going to argue minimum wage is a stalinian horror.

When you have no skills, you need to compete on price, that's just a fact of life. Preventing people from competing on price will keep them poor and unemployed. When this is done on purpose to racial minorities, it's called racism.
Since you like funky logic and straw man arguments I'll just point out that even people or business with skills have to compete on price therefore the rest of your rambling is moot.
(And I have been living my whole life in Western continental Europe so I don't see what the US segregation has to do with me being a racist because I support minimal wage)
It makes you a racist because minimum wage laws have the same effect in Europe and keeps Muslims out of job (I know you're not being purposely racist, that's just a consequence of these policies you favour). As a son of a Syrian immigrant myself, I can see the devastating effect on my Muslims brothers minimum wage and high labor costs have on them, they are the poorest in Europe because they tend to be unskilled and cannot compete on price because of racist laws. Economic laws are universal and racists economic measures such as the minimum wage will have the same effect in the US or in Europe. There's no magic that will protect us from that.
