re: Minimum wage battle is going to destroy small businesses!

If anything, you’re making the argument for why it doesn’t need to exist at all. Nobody is even paying minimum wage anymore, so there’s no real need for it.

so many basic skills labor contracts retail/ day labor/ even management
their compensation can be set to increase automatically when the Federal min wage is raised



If you have any more basic economic,political, history questions that your current significant other cannot fulfill you know how to reach me

BTW since vert few of you are actually Conservative,, my oversimplified explanation as a critique of even a Fed min wage to even begin with

the small biz grey market ,, those that don't pay compensation laws are more likely to survive than other small businesses that do play by the rules

the kind of business that immigrants are employed by..... hint


True capitalism is the only principle that might save us.. religion has lost Relion not Spiritually ,, all hail the True Church

damn Commies

where was I

Then those businesses deserve to disappear. The owners should either acquire more valuable skills, better themselves in some way or they can starve.

Do you think we don't want to see welfare programs significantly cut back?

There are supposedly 42 million people living in poverty in this country. Feel free to explain how importing 10 million workers helps that.

Some of the same people who don't want to tip people, also don't want them making above minimum wage. They also don't want immigrants in this country who normally work for less money in restaurants and trades. So if you don't have immigrants from South America, you are going to have to pay people to entice them to work for you. I don't think you "build the wall" people really understand the economic impact that has on the economy

Small businesses that buy from websites like shien and sell it as their own product for 3x mark up wondering why their profits are lower? Most small businesses don’t add value

Wow you are a fricking retard. Small businesses employ the majority of the US population. What kind of commie fricktard are you pretending to be today?

then you agree there should be no minimum wage.

Some sectors of small business will only be able to survive as a true mom and pop shop.

I agree wholeheartedly with this statement. However, government intervention and interference should not be what brings about the demise of a business by forcing business owners to pay a minimum wage for work that does not produce enough value to justify that wage.

Do you seriously believe that flipping burgers and dropping fries in hot grease for sixty seconds is worth $20.00 per hour? Raising the minimum wage to create a "living wage" is about as intelligent as saying that a human with a penis and testicles is a woman.

Flipping burgers and similar work is for kids in high school working part time for a little spending money. If you're a grown-arse adult and that's the best employment you can find, you're a bigger failure than the business owner that you seem to despise so much.

Quit projecting your life failures on others.
