I am not against a min wage because I know human nature, and I have a heart.[/quote]

But not so much of a heart as to think the min. wage should be a living wage?[/quote]

The min wage should be what it is...minimum.

If you need more to live on, which is very likely, then your time should be spent coming up with a solution as oppsoed to sitting around whining about what someone is not doing for you.

I will freely give out information on how to make more money. I have spent so much time trying to help people in that way. It is a waste because most people don't want the power of information....they want a hand out. Yet, I still try just in case.

So the only excuse is a lack of information. Maybe you never thought to get a second job, maybe you didn't know you could get on elance or odesk and make some pocket change. Perhaps it never occured to you to start offering a service on the side. Maybe you didn't know that just about everyone has a talent that someone is willing to pay for.

That is what people need...knowledge and action behind it. They do not need to sit around and tell me how I should spend the [b]money my employees have earned me.[/b]

If I choose to be generous with wages then that is great, I should. But that is my choice to make. You can make your own choices when you get to my level.

Fixed that for you. [/quote]

Not the PP, but would the employees have a job if businesses are not started? Do you feel all businesses should be non-profit?[/quote]

Does that fact change the fact that a business owner makes their money off of the work of their employees? And yet they feel no responsibility toward them? No one is saying they should make as much as you. But they should be able to eat don't you think? Why would it be so awful for the Walmart mukety mucks to make one less billion so their employees don't need food stamps? Its greed, plain and simple. [/quote]

What are the workers going to do to earn the type of money that the Walmart executives make? [/quote]
