Genuine question to the antiwork community

I’ve seen a lot of people on this sub say things along the lines of “if you can’t pay more than min wage then you shouldn’t have a business”. But I mostly see very small businesses on those posts. When I first got hired at my job I got paid min wage, I’ve worked their for nearly 2 years and have gotten 2 promotions with raises and a raise by it self. I get wanting to be paid more; however, if a small business can’t pay more than min wage so they don’t get workers and this needs to shut down, doesn’t that just open the door for nothing but millionaires and billionaires running all businesses? Which from what I’ve read on here as well, you guys also seem to be against. Maybe I’m missing something but what do you want? Do you not work anywhere that can’t pay more…

Do you not work anywhere that can’t pay more than min wage thus causing the small businesses to shut down, or do you not want the millionaires and billionaires running all businesses? Because as far as I can see one causes the other, and the only way to not have the small businesses shut down is to work for min wage until they can pay you more, which you seem to be against.
