sure there would be a tipping point that a minimum crushes business. just like there is a minimum (zero) that crushes the poor. somewhere in the middle, businesses profit & workers make a decent wage. at todays rate, we are not close to that, especially considering the wealth gap.

try and think in these terms: when I started my content biz I worked 80+ hours a week, didn't watch TV for 10 years.... so a guy hanging out, fucking around, gets a job at pizza hut and suddenly he's earned something?
you are combating the human condition....there has always been losers, winners and thief's... not going change because some bozo passes a law.. .. not sure what to do however one thing to comes to mind, is not allow people with such low income to have as many kids as they want... what's your thinking on that one?
