The whole idea that pizza shack owners should be Henry Fords just shows that the conception held by many about what the real issues are is completely off base.


No, you are dodging the fundamental argument - that is if you WORK you should be COMPENSATED so you can LIVE OFF FRUITS OF YOUR LABOR.

Not paying livable wage, so a family of 2 working adults could buy food, clothing, shelter and health care is ultimate passing responsibility on society at large. This is nothing but another way to deal out CORPORATE HANDOUTS by subsidizing wages with welfare outlays.
