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

Welfare level is defined by the government at about $1000/month, which translates to $6.25/hr... which is way less than the current minimum wage, and that makes $15/hr about 2.5 of the "welfare level"...
so the whole argument: "no one working full time should live in poverty" is complete bullshit...
