...because minimum wage arguments are never about employment they're about standards of living? ...and because the CEPR is a right-wing think tank?

Huh. I interpreted this in exactly the opposite direction: that because raising the minimum wage doesn't decrease employment much, "raising it will just cause less hiring" is not a valid excuse not to.
