      The dude defending this practice seems like the kind of guy that argues that minimum wage is bad because some business would go out of business.

      Businesses that can’t function ethically shouldn’t stay in business. I don’t have much empathy for the business tyrants who punch with one hand while begging with the other

        Minimum wage isn’t bad. I’m totally for it. It sets a level playing field for all businesses to compete.

        If society agrees that this is the minimum, and the businesses that can’t sustain, they should go out of business.

        “Not much” is still infinitely more than you should have, which is none whatsofuckingever.
