Surely the people who make the decisions about the economy would at least have studied economics at some time in their life, right? Right...?

Somehow I feel that AOC wouldn't be this stupid as to think this would even be a viable thing to sell yourself for an election, let alone enforce as an actual policy.

Implementing a national $26 minimum wage would immediately put most small businesses out of business. A lot of people who would hold min wage jobs would be left unemployed. And companies that could handle paying their employees more due to high customer demand (groceries, certain restaurants) would have to raise prices significantly.
The answer is for people to rise beyond minimum wage work suitable only for high schoolers.
