“There should be NO minimum wage laws.”

We’ve been down that road before; that is how our unions were born. Much of what they accomplished early on was great, and became law (things like weekends and lunch breaks); while they don’t serve much purpose today (in fact, they kill companies & municipalities/states), they rose from incredibly repressive conditions for people.

Marie Antoinette and Tsar Nicholas II suffered the fate of those who ignore the rumblings of complete mass discontent; our government learned and crafted a safety net so our ruling classes wouldn’t face the guillotine.
