I liked my farmhouse but I didn’t pay poverty wages so I could afford it. And no one used to expect to live in an expensive house as a small business owner. We keep making the divide bigger and bigger and watch our country implode.
Minimum wage is not the way to close the divide, that simply exacerbates the divide. Pretty much every other form of wealth redistribution is better at exacerbating the divide less than a minimum wage would, yet lefties still counter-productively push for it anyway, despite having better wealth redistribution schemes they could support other than a minimum wage.
I’d support a scheme that links pay for everyone else in a company to management compensation.

Burn in hell, socialist witch.
Nice to talk to you again too, Smitty.

Enjoy.

Don't need a minimum wage, whether that gets fixed or not.
Does turn small to medium business owners against the left tho, middle class shifting to the right ftw.
They’re not middle class though, and that’s the problem. People own landscaping businesses and expect to live in McMansions.
Clearly, it's the people who run landscaping businesses who are destroying America.

Corporations have rules. Build it into them. Compensation for workers would be fractional to management, so we don’t have management making hundreds of times the compensation of the least paid.

Small businesses would require personal responsibility on the part of the consumer. Don’t buy from someone who lives in a McMansion and has employees on welfare. The people who don’t hire businesses with illegal workers should recognize and approve of this concept.

Slaves are fascinating.

Not very original, but fascinating.

Stop standing in the way of progress, Fife. $100/hour minimum wage is the fastest route to robot helots and Spartan UBI.

Keep giving it all to the 1%. That’s working out well.
