Well this hungry person, applying for relief, automatically assumed that any business owner is automatically a republican. This is his fault for being so one-sided.

There are plenty of businesses that are not run by Republicans.

He could have just went around the back and gotten some leftovers out of the dumpster or asked to see the manager and work something out.

Pizza places often have pizzas that cant be dilivered or food they just throw out.

People like this man scare your customers away, and may be a risk to you. They might have a knife or be doing drugs or something like that.

If you randomly start giving away food, you might just attract more beggars.

If anything, be mad at the conservatives who let corporations run the world, forcing the place you work at to operate at near nothing profit just to compete.

Abusing? WTF are you talking about? These are minimum wage jobs for high schoolers trying to make some money. I know what my workers beneath me spend it on...CD's, video games, alcohol, marijuana, fast food, etc..most of them live at home. I use money for college, car payments, insurance, etc.

People with your job spend most of their money on "CD's, video games, alcohol, marijuana, fast food, etc..most of them live at home"

You are not management. You are fast food worker who is allowed to carry keys.

We don't do that. I believe John Stossel summed minimum wage up pretty well

"Higher minimum wage laws help some, but hurt much more."
Good...good....you've also learned to use the talking points of others in lieu of actual opinions. You're way smarter than I originally thought. :)

Notice I didn't take any of his points...just his summary. It's the best one I've seen, so I use it.
Not only do you use it, you do a great job explaining why you think it's true. You should quit the pizza job ASAP and found a think-tank or something.

Wow, your hate for America just keeps coming.

That "grease trap" you so HATE and is a expensive "Liberal" thing only. keeps all of our water from getting poluted to the point it is not drinkable.

Obviously you and your owner friend would rather have everyone die from poisioned water in the name of higher profits.

If he isn't making any money then he doesn't deserve to be in business.

I say shut it down, now.

By that logic, it sounds like only the big rich chain corporations should be in business...since it's getting to the point where they are the only ones able to keep up with the regulations and minimum wage laws. I'm sure they love the decreased competition.

BTW, the city explained to us that it was just taking city workers too much time to clean up the grease...so they made EVERYONE install it. New thing. The sad part is, we didn't see a city tax cut from saving all the city workers time. Interesting.

Oh really?

1-22-2006 Keeping a tidy tank

Those who choose to work in the septic industry must go to school first.

The government will not allow you to dump the waste without class completion and a permit must be acquired in order to pump it out.

These classes and permits must be completed and renewed every year.

All equipment, such as backhoes, dump trucks, the pump truck and its hoses, is also inspected once a year.

The equipment is not cheap either - the truck, which holds 3,600 gallons of waste, costs over $100,000 with the industrial-strength pump included

"FYI, the Honey Truck driver, a great guy named Les, used to be a psychiatrist," said Rowe, referring to a guest on his show. "He quit his practice to clean septic tanks for a living."
=================================================
Must be "Liberals" cleaning that tank for you and the owner too... :roll:

Like I said you both don't deserve to be in business.

Oh of course you and all your "conservative" buddies don't listen to music, never play a video game, never drink, never smoke either tobacco or mj, never eat fast food, and somehow even more elite because don't live at home either. :roll:

Oh and "liberals" don't go to College, don't have cars so they possibly couldn't make car payments or insurance payments either.

Keep going, this chronology and documentation of your "conservative hate for America" is great for the history books.

Actually that's not true. These "liberals" are trying to increase minimum wage more, and the owner isn't exactly making a ton of money and is thinking of just shutting it down if it keeps going up...plus I'd be making more if minimum wage were lower and we'd be able to hire more people. Not to mention that the liberals decided that we needed to install an expensive grease trap that get clogged up and overflows and smells like sh*t and doesn't really fit anywhere so it's snug tightly in an awkward place that gets in the way of everyone.


WTF?! If you'd be making more, why wouldn't your employer just hire more people and pay you more like he would be "if minimum wage were lower"?

I love your "less jobs and competition" is better for america thinking. I guess you'd love it if only a few giant corporations employed everyone? Minimum wage keeps going up, smaller businesses in my city will keep going out of business, and Wal-Mart will be loving the monopoly it will soon have. Good to see you support that. You're a great man.

You don't even have enough knowledge in this area to troll properly.

Sure, I'm not an economic mastermind. But I do have eyes and ears and I can see what's happening. Small businesses get SCREWED when minimum wage goes up and people living on fixed incomes get SCREWED when the prices of everything go up as a result of the wage increase. Our prices keep going up (to keep up with minimum wage), we lose some business to some retired folks who decide they can't afford to eat out anymore. I've SEEN IT happen and have listened to the customers complain.

They can pass that additional compensation on to the purchasers or they can cut costs another way. It is the natural progression of free markets.

If you're not such an "economic mastermind" then how did you decide what you think you are seeing is right? :confused:

What's your answer?

Minimum wage to go down to China/India levels at $2.96hr or less?

Do you want your employees begging for a slice of pizza???

Nobody on AT is an economic mastermind. So why do we debate at all? Why do people with engineering/teaching/english/construction careers debate politics? Because it's not that difficult to figure out. I'm sure you'd love minimum wage to be $30 an hour because you think businesses are an endless supply of money and that all workers everywhere DESERVE and NEED more money.
