[/quote] As a business owner, I do not see it this way at all. If someone does not like a minimum wage job, leave. No one is forcing it on anyone. If someone is tired of earning minimum wage, learn a skill or trade which pays better. With my business, the lowest we pay is $20 per hour, and that is for simple clerical work, but they gotta have established, demonstrable skills or the are not hired. People in this generation piss and moan about millionaires and billionaires, but do nothing in their own lives to build their own fortunes. They expect that it should be GIVEN to them. Horse shit. A vast majority of people who have a high net worth have busted their asses, took risks, started their own businesses and experienced significant failure along the way to achieving what they have now. Don't buy into the bullshit. If you want a high net worth, ya gotta get out and hustle, ya gotta take risks, ya gotta hang your ass on the line. And here is a little secret to ponder: A vast majority of new businesses FAIL. Bad ideas, bad timing, poor decisions, poor risk evaluation, poor use of capital, etc.. But the difference between those people and the whiners is that most get up, dust themselves off and try again. Get busy. [/quote] You do realize that this is basically the opposite of being a conspiracy theorist, right? You bow down willingly to your billionaire and millionaire overlords. We live in a developed nation and the majority can read and write and will do well at doing something so why not pay them a livable wage? Oh I forgot, we put all the money in the hands of rich ceo's and scam artists that tell us we should "work harder" like ants until we're too old and tired out and die. Fuck that and fuck people who agree with this. [/quote] You stupid mother-fucker.... [/quote]
