Just index it to GDP/ inflation or executive pay/ compensation.

Executive pay would be nice. Make it so the CEO gets paid a maximum of 20x the lowest paid worker. CEO pay goes up? So does company minimum wage. Make it account for stock grants too.

Hell, I bet most of the Fortune 500 already has a contingency plan to work around that imposition if that sort of legislation is ever passed.
