Come on Keith, you're smarter than that.

Nobody suggested anything remotely as high as a $25/hr minimum wage,
either in politics or on this list. Some people on this list suggested
that 1) Yes, there should continue to be a minimum wage, and some
implied that 2) Today's minimum wage is too low. But not $17.75/hr too
low.

Your mention of $25/hr misrepresents your opponents' position, so it's
a classic Straw Man informal falacy:

You wouldn't fall for that. Why would you assume others on the list
would?
