The only way to fight this is to raise the minimum wage to something that is livable for the average worker.

Then what do you do when only the Amazons and Walmarts of the world with the deepest pockets can afford that, and small business basically ceases to exist, as a result? People talk a lot about 'if you can't pay a livable wage you don't deserve to be in business', but the same people also complain about monopolies and lack of choice at the same time. How do you propose this be reconciled?

Also, no one's ever going to be able to begin to enforce a "living wage", even if they wanted to, until that wage is given a concrete definition--at the very least, a formula with variables to account for cost of living differences across the country. Until then, all this clamoring for a "living wage" is completely pointless.
