What are some reasons why a single minimum wage might distort the labor market for teenage workers more than it would the market for adult workers

Answer:
Because the largest chunk of minimum wage workers are teenagers. Raising the minimum wage removes these jobs.

Since increasing minimum wage would destroy certain part of jobs that fall below the new minimum, teenagers will be affected more.
