if your business relies on paying your employees below that and you have the rest of the tax payers substitute that by having to pay your employees food stamps or whatever, then you need to figure out how to be better or close.

and I do have employees, they earn about 3 times the minimum wage in this country
This is my thinking as well. Certain groups love to talk about govt leeches, but the truth of the reality is, any company whom purposely keeps workers as "part time" in order to get out of paying their obligations as an employer or much worse paying people at such a low wage the govt has to supplement their employees. Well that company is the true govt leech.

Walmart and most fast food is perfect example of govt leech business model.
