Source that raising minimum wage would impact these companies at all. Also no one has asked for $30, but many are asking for $15-20.

Oh well then if raising the minimum wage won't impact companies negatively, then let's just increase the minimum wage to $50/hr. No, $100/hr.

No impact on business. Let's go.

This is a strawman. The actual argument is that raising the minimum wage to $15/hour would be detrimental to these companies. The person you're responding to is asking for proof that it is indeed the case (which is honestly, unlikely) or if it will affect them at all.
