.50c doesn't do anything really. 2.50 could be a jump, but that is the federal minimum many states already require more so in most cases it wouldn't be a true $2.50. I know a lot of fast food places around here already pay mid 8's to 9. If not they can adjust prices of product, but I don't think they will in the end.
